I love Julia, and in many areas both the language and standard libraries are quite polished.

However, simple parallelism based on threads (e.g. a parallel map) surprisingly requires a third party library. ThreadsX, the one you posted about, is also my favorite option.

Besides, the standard pipe operator (|>) doesn't support partial application. This has lead to several third-party reimplementations via macros, transducers, etc. Since this is a basic feature, fragmentation is a bit worrying.
