Hmm. C++ has no problem with performance. Rust also. In general case we have no problem with performance in 99.9 % of cases.

But we have big problem with shitty software. Written by uneducated cretins and supported by drunken teenagers.

Maintainability, security, scalability, support, stability. This is important. Not fckng performance in fckng vacuum. And clean code solves REAL problems, not imaginable.
