It's a sad time to be a fan of Julia-- everyone forgets it's there.

Especially when it is actually successful at what it was designed to be, a faster Python for data science folks, having gotten enough researchers, more than most toy languages that almost daily drop on HN and Reddit.

I was excited to try Julia, but then, as I saw it was an interpreted language, with bulky runtime, slow startup times and bloated library sizes - my initial interest quickly faded.

For the same reasons I see languages like Python, Java, C# as inferior.
