As a physicist, it's been really cool seeing the awareness of Julia in the community gradually increase.

Large swathes of the physics community have been migrating their code to Python over the past few years but it really seems now that Julia is getting so many amazing features and packages that it can't be ignored.

Same here, I worked in a computational biophysics department with lots of python/bash/R and I was the only one who wrote lots of high-performance code in Julia. People were curious about the language but it was still very much unknown. Hope we will see a broader adoption of Julia in the future - it's just that much better for the stuff we do on a daily basis.
