Numba VS V (programming language)

I believe it is using Numba which converts to machine code. https://numba.pydata.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

Around the same time, I discovered Numba and was fascinated by how easily it could bring huge performance improvements to Python code. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

Or you use numba [1]. Then you can use a subset of plain Python. [1] https://numba.pydata.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

Simulations are, at least in my experience, numba’s [0] wheelhouse. [0]: https://numba.pydata.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

That's very cool. Numba introduces just-in-time compilation to Python via decorators and its sole reason for being is to turn everything it can into abstract syntax trees. Source: 10 months ago

The creator of V made some big claims that raised a few eyeballs, they've gained a reasonable following over the years, have a pretty serious looking website (https://vlang.io) a beer-money level Patreon following and some corporate partnerships/sponsors. However have experienced some pretty brutal takedowns over the years, with some of the bolder claims about the language/compiler being exposed as being. A word I... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

Fingers crossed for vlang[0]. It's like golang with better types and more syntactic sugar. Feels like a proper upgrade from Python. I really hope they succeed. [0]: https://vlang.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

And again a No true Scotsman. If that's the kind of attitude you have towards languages, you'll appreciate V infinitely more than you might be appreciating Rust. After all, it offers better solutions than Rust, like autofree, they just aren't there yet :). Source: 10 months ago

I discovered VLang today. It's an interesting project. Source: 10 months ago

According to their own benchmarks, Seed7 can run faster than C (it compiles to C, but it's entirely possible the emited code is better optimized than a human could write directly in C)... It doesn't have a GC BUT manages memory automatically (I didn't really follow the explanation in the FAQ, something about automatically freeing variables that go out of scope and keeping only one reference around?)... that's like...
