> Van Rossum says Julia is an interesting take on something Python-like but when you realise the indexing is one-based and ranges are inclusive instead of exclusive “you think nobody should ever try to code in Julia and in Python on the same day”. That's a disappointingly superficial take, compared to the potential discussions that could be had on this topic, regarding the mindsets for the languages, multiple dispatch vs OO, etc. He's not wrong, off by one errors are very quick to creep in, but we didn't need Guido van Rossum to tell us that.
