I love the Clojure community, it is the only one that usually talks about the host platform in a symbiotic way, not as if they would be rewriting everything into their favourite language, like in most guest languages communities.

people don't usually think of C as a host platform, but the python community has a similarly symbiotic relationship with C extensions.

Since Java 25/Project Panama, I have that kind of relationship with C from Clojure as well.

Codex can one shot the bindings flawlessly, and the interface is significantly faster for downcalls vs. JNI.

Hence why it is such a sad story with JIT compilers in Python.
