In my experience: Julia, Java, C++. Lack of libraries in a pain; OTOH the quality of most libraries (in general) tends to be poor.

Examples of library issues: there is C++ support in tensor flow, but not for training.

For anything involving differential equations, Julia is way better than anything else. I also wouldn't be at all surprised if Julia catches up to python for way more machine learning within the next year
Agree to that completely. It is also hard for the libraries to spend their energy / time in building for languages that covers only a few percentage of total users. :(
Julia doesn't lack libraries and the quality imo is pretty good. Did you look at PyCall.jl?
Interesting! I did not yet! will take a look. I remember swift was working on something similar to seamlessly call Python.
