> Honestly though, scientific computing seems to be going Julia.
I think that the days where one language gets momentum and becomes "the" language for some scientific computing task are gone. No doubt Julia does have momentum. However, these days interoperability is rapidly improving, and we are rapidly moving to an equilibrium where you can more or less choose your own language and not worry too much about it being the "right" language, because you can call libraries written in numerous other languages. I certainly hope that's where we're going.
