Python gets roasted for being slow, so it does what any reasonable language would do: outsources the heavy lifting to C libraries. NumPy, Pandas, TensorFlow? All running on C under the hood. It's like claiming you're a great chef when you're just really good at ordering takeout.

The reply takes it further. Software thinks it's so smart, but it's just instructions running on silicon. Every program is basically cheating by using hardware to do the actual work. Your GPU rendering those graphics? Hardware. Your CPU executing those loops? Also hardware. Software is just middle management taking credit for the workers' output.

It's turtles all the way down, except the turtles are all calling each other cheaters.
