Not much really... In many languages ORM's require just about as much boiler plate or careful error checking as copy pasting SQL strings with supportive structs... Not saying ORM's are bad, some are OK some are maybe…
It's probably more fair to claim that R/Python/Julia have the same ecosystem now if you are willing to deal with speed bumps and some clunky interfaces. Because there are packages going in both direction for all three.
Kindred spirits it seems. Yea I think there is a serious future for Julia. It's my R&D and prototype workhorse by preference :). Again, completely agree with the sometimes confusing state of the ecosystem. Sometimes I…
I don't think you ever will unless Go >2.0 is a completely different language.
Does it really matter though? I mean, whether it's a closing bracket or a whitespace demarcated control flow - does it really effect anything you do in the language? Julia solves a lot of problems, like real problems -…
Mose Giordano hit the nail on the head with this one. Who cares about 1 vs 0 based indices? If anything its a silly and minor design decision. I worry about someones ability to solve real problems in any language if…
Speaking of functional programming and GPU's - check out Futhark :D. Very on the fringe but very interesting.
Try using Go for any serious math project, then do the same using Julia. Report back as to how both approaches went :P. From someone who uses both languages for very different tasks regularly, I would never try to write…
I've used Julia for quite a few years now. It's biggest flaws in my opinion are basically cultural and not technological. It's been adopted mostly by serious domain experts rather then typical software engineers and…
