orgpad.info/blog/all-pro... imho, this post has some basis in truth: yes, in a literal sense, a programming language does not have a speed: an implementation of a language and a program in it has a speed but this completely misses that language semantics impact performance ceilings

All Programming Languages are ...

All Programming Languages are Fast

Well, at least the serious ones. In recent years, software got much slower, basically killing all advances in hardware performance. Finally, software performance got to the front of debate. Yet the discussion is often twisted toward things that do not really matter. One such myth is that there are fast and slow programming languages, while in fact the difference in speed is rather negligible. Furthermore, languages differ in power, so it might make sense to trade a bit of performance for it. I will showcase this on my favorite programming language Clojure.
