> All I ever wanted from Julia was great a development experience, but it appears to have never quite gotten there. I feel you. After AOT support (it is improving; slowly, but still) my biggest gripe with Julia is tooling/dev experience. VSCode extension performance is abysmal. Debugging support is delegated to some external package and this debugger has to ship with its own interpreter, and download additional packages. Like, why the hell I need to download few packages just to have a debugger? I keep track of what is going on and play with it sometimes, but to me Julia will remain a curiosity, even though the language itself is actually fun, with many good ideas (and some bad ones). Also, "two language problem" is not a problem for me.
