- the julia runtime does a good job competing with sbcl with regard to interactive code generation. I'm not familiar enough with sbcl (or julia, really) to rank one over the other -- but from what I have seen, they're in the same ballpark.
- julia feels like a lisp to me, due to many features of the language and how much it emphasizes repl based development. I can respect that others may not feel the same -- it's a subjective matter.
I'm not heavily invested in either -- I just think they're both nifty.
