Very comfy language. Certainly superior to matlab. More beautiful tjan Python too.

very fast, very comfy, can even be GPU accelerated

It's just Python wannabe inferior cousin due to limited software packages and stupid lack of features in the language itself. just use python, or c++ if you want performance.

Some guy implemented a simple model for synchronized oscillators in Python, which I used quite a lot for my thesis. Unfortunately I had to wait quite a while for each run, but it didn't matter too much.
After my thesis I decided to have a crack at improving it, but using Julia as my peers were jerking it off.
Made something that produces the same results, but was 2 orders of magnitude faster, dropping the processing time from about 2 hours to a little over a minute.

you can achieve the same result in python. by default there is no optimization but you can use libraries for such purposes. there's no need to use a limited language like Julia just for the acceleration. sounds like skill issues my guy.

What is missing from Julia?

Nothing really, maybe some niche libraries because it's a relatively new language.
I'm too much of a retard to learn a new syntax so I cannot ever switch to any other lang other than python. even then I'm finding it hard to start using the retarded type hinting shit they introduced in python.

btw I've tested Julia with kernel on jupyter a while ago. I got back to python because of my long habit with python.

Everything is better than Matlab. Octave is better than Matlab. Matlab needs to be voided.

this, papers should be voided if they publish their code in matlab.

A compiler.
You need to install a JRE (Julia Runtime Env) to run Julia. No compiled programs. The programs dont exit the academic space.....
It's good for
write once
Compile once
run once

If you need to run multiple times, it is suboptimal.
Still better than python

I haven't personally used it myself, but it does suffer from it just being a young language from what I've heard.

Depending on exactly what you need for number crunching, Julia does provide nice functionality in the standard library. I recommend looking at the documentation for what sort of things you might need: https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/

Furthermore, Julia also supports calling code from C: https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/calling-c-and-fortran-code/

If you're already acquainted with Python though, I'd rather stick to an LLVM like numba for the convenience of familiarity and better support

I've mostly been avoiding it because there are a ton of subtle bugs in the core language and major packages that make it hard to trust any nontrivial program written in it

Many such cases

The original implementation used a bunch of differential equation libraries. The saving grace for a speedup in Julia was due to static allocation.
Could that be done in Python? Genuinely curious, I'm no Python wiz.
