Julia
I have thought about Julia.
What are your thoughts on it?
Julia looks like it is pointed towards ML programming and is fast, but I don't see the same level of potential in a few years that Rust and Swift seem to have.
Rust seems to generating a lot more buzz and I've been seeing posts about Swifts ML libraries that look interesting. My crystal ball seems to be saying that Rust will follow a similar arc that Python took and gain some serious ML creds through libraries built by community/industry. I think Swift will also gain some credible ML capabilities too because it has the Apple behemoth behind it.
