And so Guido was very interested in, like, okay, cool.

Like, I think that Python is really his legacy.

It's his baby.

I have tons of respect for that.

Incidentally, I see Mojo as a member of the Python family.

We're not trying to take Python away from Guido and from the Python community.

And so to me, it's really important that we're a good member of that community.

And so I think that, again, you would have to ask Guido this, but I think that he was very interested in this notion of, like, cool, Python gets beaten up for being slow.

Maybe there's a path out of that, right?

And that, you know, if the future is Python, right?

I mean, look at the far outside case on this, right?

And I'm not saying this is Guido's perspective, but, you know, there's this path of saying like, okay, well, suddenly Python can suddenly go all the places it's never been able to go before, right?

Right, and that means that Python can go even further and can have even more impact on the world.

I would not say that.

I think that would drive a lot of people really crazy.

I'm willing to annoy people about Emacs versus Vim or about TED versus Spaces.

I don't know.

That might be a little bit far even for me.

My skin may not be that thick.

Well, so again, these are lessons I learned from Swift.
