Well it’s 100 comments in, but I think maybe the biggest problem is simply that we LOVE Julia and love is a strong emotion. We know the flaws as well as anyone. We pay for the pain points in blood, but we believe, we hope and try not to hope too much but it’s just SO GREAT when you get some crucial code down to 0 allocations. When haters hate on your team you can’t always be super rational. I just want to say that coding is something I spend a lot of time doing, and I’d rather feel the love and excitement and be a little irrational with the haters than play it cool and code in C++. Ideally we’d feel the love and keep the cool, and I think we usually do. Extreme value statistics on the distribution of humans comprising a community drive a lot of perceived irregularities.
