Why would an RTX 4090 make Python faster?
Don’t worry this post was written by a first year computer science student who just learned about C. No need to look too closely at it.
Rust is better.
The only language worth discussing is brainfuck
Purest of the programming languages
Joke's on you, he was talking about "Phyton". /s
I bet an LLM could have written this meme without making that mistake.
Embarrassing.
The new favorite language of AAA game studios: ~~Phyton~~ Python
Well, it just demostrate how slow is unoptimized software
If you create a meme like this at least inform yourself on how computers and software work.
If 4090 is not making stuff faster then why my games run faster with it? /s
Easy, your 4090 is made of pure assembly.
Screaming at my single-threaded, synchronous web scraper "Why are you so slow, I have a 4090!"
I'm happy if it's actually running in python and not a javascript app with electron.
Idk, it's rare for an electron app to literally not even run. Meanwhile I'm yet to encounter a python app that doesn't require me to Google what specific environment the developer had and recreate it.
I think with pyenv and pipenv/UV you can create pretty reliable packaging. But it's not as common as electron, so it's a pain.
With a properly packaged python app, you shouldn't even notice you're running a python app. But yeah, for some reason there's a lot of them that ... aren't.
Ah yes, those precious precious CPU cycles. Why spend one hour writing a python program that runs for five minutes, if you could spend three days writing it in C++ but it would finish in five seconds. Way more efficient!
Because when it is to actually get paid work done, all the bloat adds up and that 3 days upfront could shave weeks/months of your yearly tasks. XKCD has a topic abut how much time you can spend on a problem before effort outweighs productivity gains. If the tasks are daily or hourly you can actually spend a lot of time automating for payback
And note this is one instance of task, imagine a team of people all using your code to do the task, and you get a quicker ROI or you can multiply dev time by people
That also goes to show why to not waste 3 days to shave 2 seconds off a program that gets run once a week.
You can write perfectly well structured and maintainable code in Python and still be more productive than in other languages.
Welp, microcontrollers say hi
Welp, I'm not saying you should use Python for everything. But for a lot of applications, developer time is the bottleneck, not computing resources.
So, I've noticed this tendency for Python devs to compare against C/C++. I'm still trying to figure out why they have this tendency, but yeah, other/better languages are available. 🙃
I know it makes me sound like an of man shouting at clouds but the other day I installed Morrowind and was genuinely blown away by how smooth and reliable it ran and all the content in the game fitting in 2gb of space. Skyrim requires I delete my other games to make room and still requires a whole second game worth of mods to match the stability and quantity of morrowind.
High res textures (especially normal maps) and higher quality/coverage audio really made game sizes take off. Unreal's new "Nanite" tech, where models can have literally billions of polygons, actually reduces game size because no normal maps.
Back in the day morrowind was unoptimised too, https://kotaku.com/morrowind-completely-rebooted-your-xbox-during-some-loa-1845158550
That's fair, though honestly the only issue I ever had on the Xbox was having a loading screen every 5 minutes.
Yes, but also community rewrite of the Morrowind engine, to make it even more better: https://openmw.org/
Admittedly, some changes might make it use more resources, for example it's got basically no loading screens, because nearby cells get loaded before you enter them...
I'm actually giving that a try now because it comes packaged with bazzite! I just wish I could figure out modding lol
Armatures, I only write software using my hammer by punching holes in steel plates.
amateurs, i write my software with a magnetized needle and a steady hand
Phyton
Love you homie 💋 walks away
plus all the spying and the "telemetry" bs
Love phyton
No Phyton, Jiverscrap is best.
"bloat" is just short for "your computer sucks".
Dump your peasant tier shit and go fill up that 42U rack.
no u
Tbh this all seems to be related to following principles like Solid or following software design patterns. There's a few articles about CUPID, SOLID performance hits, etc
