  @jbowen @alcinnz I've been noodling around with it since December (I'm almost done with Advent of Code lol) and quite like it as a general purpose language. I can definitely see myself using it for many things I'd have done in Python (basically anything that doesn't depend on a specific module).

  @alcinnz Julia is a language I've wanted to play with, but I don't write much math code these days, so I don't know what I'd do with it.

  @eamon @alcinnz Most of what I do is automating systems administration tasks (Python, bash, Perl). Could you see Julia being usable for that?
