Julia is weird.. it's like someone saw all of TypeScript's or F#'s opaque type errors and then thought "wouldn't it be better if all of these could happen... at run time?" In seriousness I have been enjoying it a lot over Python, but I'd kill for static typing. It's highly expressive (comprehensions, functional-style all-statements-are-expressions, anonymous named tuples, and heaps more) and these features seem to be usable without sacrificing performance, in a way that I've not yet seen in any other language.
