- totalperspectiv 7y agoI really want to love Julia. I've never gotten over the startup time, slow string functions, and package manager repl thing. Perhaps I was getting into it at a bad time, right around the time the new package manager was being announced. The whole thing felt very magic... too R like for comfort.
