Time to first "use julia instead" comment: 3, 2, 1...
- Mauricebranagh 6y agoIf its a pure numerical problem just use Fortran and buy the NAG librarys. oooh just checked and NAG do python library's now as well so that might be teh best solution.
- gostsamo 6y agoI'm actually a python developer, but I might be the only one appreciating the identity investment that people on both sides put in their chosen language.

- cambalache 6y agoNow that people are "writing games and web servers" in Julia (as per some commenters) and that the use case list for Rust grows exponentially I cannot wait for the most epic of collisions, Julia vs Rust, astronomers must be rubbing their hands for this one.
- gostsamo 6y agoIt is funny, because those kinds of arguments are totally meaningless. Languages are tools and a true craftsman would master many of them and use them when they are the right tool for the job. Instead, people who know only one tool try to convince themselves and everyone else that the tool they have is the only one they need and thus have it all backward.
