   I guess it's not serious in this case, as streaming audio is not very CPU-intensive, BUT I noticed that when I trained my ML model (basically 100% GPU usage) I could hear a noise in my M40Xs. I guess it's some MOBO/GPU insula

    I think the point being made here is that all CI/CD/SDLC stuff is effectively slowing down development, so the difference in iteration speed between Python and Rust is less explicit. But I dare to disagree, I just can't conne

    Another (maybe even more) important motivation was to have simple, statically-typed language so that new hires can contribute to the codebase faster and the code itself is more standardized and easier to maintain at large scale.
