I’m fascinated by Julia and have test driven it before but it didn’t click for me. Maybe I was doing it wrong and/or the ecosystem has matured since I last looked.
I guess I generally do like the pythonic paradigm of an interpreted glue language orchestrating precompiled functions written in other languages. I don’t need or want to compile the entire pipeline end to end after every edit, that slows my development iteration cycle times.
I just want to write my own fast compiled functions to insert into the pipeline on the rare occasions I need something bespoke that doesn’t already exist in the extended python ecosystem. It seems like a lower level language would be optimal for that?
