Deep learning may need a new programming language

I was curious about Julia, mostly to experiment with the Flux machine learning library. I tried some ‘general purpose’ Julia programming: network IO, consuming RDF data, some natural language processing/text processing, etc.

I was specifically interested in the question ‘could Julia be my general purpose language?’. In reality, I am too much into Lisp languages, Haskell, etc. to seriously want a new language, so this was just a two evening experiment.

But what did you think of Julia?

Julia is a very nice language. Still, I would not use it for a large project with many developers: similar situation as Python.
