    I don’t know if no one mentioned Julia because it’s considered popular enough or because it’s really not popular but… Julia for sure.

      I was looking for this comment. It’s unfortunate that Julia basically dies in the shadows of python, in some sense it’s much more logical, out at least f ing print and division doesn’t change between versions

      What are some good use cases for Julia, I really like the language just haven’t found a user for it yet.

        I know the language is really academics focused and is really strong in that sense. Otherwise I found that it was a great language for long running services. I use it for some APIs and algorithm trading bots.

        I’m debating putting more hours into it, maybe trying a website in genie, but I agree the current ecosystem makes it a hard sell when I can use python instead.
