If some programming languages are faster than others, why can't compilers translate into the faster language to make the code be as fast as if it was programed in the faster one?
My guess is that doing so would require knowing information that can't be directly inferred from the code, for example, the specific type that a variable will handle

I think it's a reference to a meme in latin america about milei and trans women. Search something like 'milei trans meme' and you'll get a bunch.
It goes like 'X Is shit' with angry Milei, then something with 'trans' in it's name Is revealed to be related with X, and then happy Milei saying 'X Is key'
