Hey, it's no secret, Tom Jones keeps on singing. He is amazing.
Only the Welsh can claim such a singer. My wife's favorite.

You might think it rare that Wales could produce a singer like Tom Jones butβ¦.
Itβs not unusual!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

You are correct but in Welsh band, if memory serves.

I bought this little monster, which I can recommend
GitHub - Makerfabs/Makerfabs-ESP32-S3-Parallel-TFT-with-Touch[^]
The stock firmware however, was garbage. It didn't take advantage of the onboard S3 chip's hardware acceleration for driving LCD displays. It was clearly thrown together as an afterthought.
The frame rates were 37fps average which with a 16bit parallel display topping out at 8MHz it could be better.
So I rolled up my sleeves and dived into ESP-IDF arcana, using a brand new and sort of unpolished as of yet system for hardware accelerating my 16-bit i8080 interface.
After diving through stale message board threads and some source code, I figured it out.
Original driver: 37FPS, flickery, no dma
Mine: 45FPS, flickery, no dma or 56FPS! not flickery, w/ DMA depending on how much RAM you want to use.
And just in time to help a colleague with some paying work he's using this device for. 
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

Probably. 
It's a dual core 240MHz 32-bit system. It has 1MB of PSRAM that i've been able to access. Supposedly it has 2. It has 512KB of SRAM, after the display driver, and all the other crap is loaded it has about 320KB? usable.

I am NOT criticizing Python and I implore the reader please do not start nor engage in any βflame warβ on Python.
I have programmed in a number of different languages over my 40 years as a developer. My current languages that I use the most are C# and T-SQL.
I see that Python is popular, or at least appears so.
What value-add(s) does Python bring that I cannot get now in C#? What disadvantages are there, if any, to using Python over C#?
Is Python a better general purpose language, or is it better at some specific niche(s) in development?
I would really like to get a clearer picture of why using Python along with, or in place of, C# would be of value.
Thanks in advance for the non-flame responses.

Thanks. That article gives a good overview on how Python is used effectively today.
C# can, and is, used for all of those. What I am looking for are comparisons in those areas, or generally, where Python would be an advantage.
For example, design and coding time in VS 2022 (which supports both languages), performance, etc.
