Yes, writing pre-1.0 Julia code was like balancing on a log in the water - the platform kept moving under you :D I'm glad it's gotten a lot stabler now.

And I agree about academics as a key user base. I think Julia's growth is far from over, there's a lot of organic spread yet to come. It may never replace Python in terms of global popularity, but then, why should it have to?
