Julia on M1 Macs

It depends a bit on how adventurous you want to be. Rosetta is probably more stable, but native will have higher performance. If you’re new to Julia and/or just want something that will work, use rosetta. If you don’t mind the possibility of losing an hour or two now and then to bug-hunting in Julia itself, use native.

Any clue about this issue with jl_n_threads loading the julia library? Juliacall on Apple M1 · Issue #175 · cjdoris/PythonCall.jl · GitHub ?

Not a recommendation, but I personally mostly use the native version since julia 1.8-rc1 was released, although I do have the rosetta version installed as well. (I use one script to run computations and save results, and another script to make plots, and I used to have to do the plotting with rosetta, but not anymore.)
