Wait, I thought Julia was “fast Python”? If that’s not the case why would I want to switch to it from Python?

Fast startup, high throughput, high productivity: Choose two.

C/C++/Fortran take fast startup and high throughput, python takes fast startup and high productivity, and julia takes high productivity and high throughput.
