Watch Now: Why is Python Slow?

Why is Python “slow”? We break down how the GIL worked, why it held older versions of Python back, and what changed now that it’s finally gone from the Python programming language. We compare Python to faster compiled languages like C++ and Rust, talk about where Python still shines, and look at how real engineering teams use it for prototyping, automation, and massive testing systems.
