Julia sucks!
It has similar syntax to Python and it's messing with my Python's knowledge.
Thanks to my Image processing subject's professor who preferred Julia over Python, because it's faster! and then he uses a package called Pluto (similar to Jupyter) which makes running Julia code super frustrating.

    I experimented a bit a couple years back. I liked the language itself, I liked the paradigm (multiple dispatch != function overloading) but damn the JIT compilation was sooo sloow! After its compiled it's fast, but write a quick and dirty script and it will take 10 seconds to compile, I suppose you have gains in software that does beefy math, where paying a constant upfront cost every time you run the script is ok...

    At least that's how it was back then and I haven't touched it since so I don't know if it got better.
