Compiled languages will near always execute faster outside of unrealistic tests but cannot always be used. These languages are also more difficult to use. Scripting languages are slower and have more overhead but are easier to use.

Scripting languages end up used places they shouldn’t because companies hire for low pay and if you’re not making very much you’re not gonna do as good of a job. This seems fine until basic applications like discord are actually just google chrome and all your memory is gone 🙁
