The accelerating adoption of Julia

The accelerating adoption of Julia

FWIW I created a testing/data analyses project in Julia which we use to automatically tag failing kernel tests:

It's a bit complicated for what we actually use it for now, but it works (although I should probably re-implement it in language people understand with a lot of my original assumptions removed). Julia is a great language, but rough round the edges. I spent quite a lot of time fixing bugs in and optimising libraries and decided just to reinvent the wheel on some occasions instead of using an existing library because of the stuff going on there, but I'm inclined to do that anyway.

Would happily use it for the things we usually do in Perl or Python. I can't convince anyone else to learn it though.
