The Julia FFI for Python is absolutely excellent -- calling a particular Python library from Julia takes very, very little effort. As a language for scientific programming, Julia is way ahead of Python. So I'm not sure if this particular argument holds much water.

- baldfat 11y agoI think it is a chicken or the egg problem with Julia right now. Julia is very much a positively viewed language that isn't being used much. There are not enough libraries (I looked 3 months ago) for me to do my work in Julia. There isn't enough users to make the libraries for my use case.
