I used Julia to build a macroeconomic model (DSGE-VAR) during my econ studies. I liked the conceptual decisions and the language per se (ie as a spec), but DX was quite bad: low discoverability of features and proper typings, clunky metaprogramming, long compilation times, impossibility of struct redefinitions in REPL. My interest died pretty fast because of it.
