Are there any resources for Pythonistas learning Julia? I ask, because it seems like a common enough use case, however I wasn’t able to find any resources on my own. Consequently, I’ve started to compile a cheat-sheet which I’ll share here if there is no existing resource to contribute to.

Yup!  
[There’s loads of stuff in the manual](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/noteworthy-differences/index.html#Noteworthy-differences-from-Python-1), and googling for [cheat sheets](https://www-math.mit.edu/~stevenj/Julia-cheatsheet.pdf) has some good hits as well.  
Special shoutout to the effort made by the people at [QuantEcon](https://cheatsheets.quantecon.org/) for this one in particular.

Not only for Python users, but there is [Think Julia](https://benlauwens.github.io/ThinkJulia.jl/latest/book.html) which is similar to [Think Python](http://greenteapress.com/thinkpython/html/index.html) (same author).
