| The data this article quotes doesn't smell right. The tables and graphs in "The Performance Problem" section should at least feel a little strange. Looking at the original article[1], we can see the source code for JavaScript [2], Python [3], and .Net [4] shows that...there just isn't much going on here. This isn't a comparison of how fast these are. It's a comparison of how fast this AWS setup could do its thing, and how fast this DynamoDB client library is. In the "So Why/Not .NET?", there's the "Advisories by package ecosystem and severity"[5] graph. So it doesn't feel a little strange that NuGet is the pinnacle of software engineering, and programs there just have no security vulnerabilities? Or maybe...there's some bias going on here, and NuGet isn't as interesting to look at as PyPI, so there are fewer advisories being published? That's another way to look at it. When things look too good to be true, maybe they are. I don't care if the author (or anyone else) wants to use .Net, have fun. I do care that we sometimes approach technological issues with hostility and rivalry, accepting random data which seem to support us without looking them through.
