Typical first world citizen.

Lemme guess, they’re gonna launch a private Mastodon server.
There’s nothing stoping you from gutting your distro and installing new kernel, libc, package manager, toolchain, and all the other components. The GUI should be trivial as people have change back and forth among different ones (within the same distro) anyway, assuming your package manager.
Of course, this begs the question: why the fuck would you do that instead of just installing a new one fresh?

People seem to be unaware that python has bindings for lower-level languages like C. In fact, people have been heavily using resource intensive libraries implemented in C (e.g. numpy, scipy, pandas, uwsgi).
Also, Python interpreter performance has come a long way.
This is my two cents as someone in the industry.
Because, while you don’t want to nitpick on each instruction cycle, sometimes the code runs millions of times and each microsecond adds up.
Keep in mind that people use this kind of things for work, serving real world customers who are doing their work.
Yes, the language itself is not optimal even by design, but its easy to work with, so they are making it worth a while. There’s no shortage of people who can work with it. It is easy to develop and maintain stuff with it, cutting development cost. Yes, we’re talking real businesses with real resource constraints.

If it makes you feel better (or worse), thr NSA has contributed a great deal of work to the Linux kernel. In fact, they created SELinux, which you may be using at this very moment.
I praise the one who managed to sell it.
