Jinja2 has a concept of 'recursive loops', a neat concept that I haven't seen before. Handy for threaded comments.

It's so strange that we talk about languages being slow, and have done for years. Computer performance has increased so much in this time. https://hbfs.wordpress.com/2009/11/10/is-python-slow/ (shared on HN in 2009) discusses Python being slow. My underpowered Thinkpad has 20x the single-threaded performance! https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/73vs3766/AMD-Athlon-64-4000+-vs-AMD-Ryzen-5-PRO-4650U Maybe *relative* performance of languages matters more?

Are users more tolerant of a slow programming language if it has good multithreading or green threads? I'd be willing to use a PL with good ergonomics that runs at 0.5x speed if it's easy to saturate multiple threads. (PLs focusing on single-threaded performance are common!)
