Anyone knows what Mojo is doing that Julia cannot do? I appreciate that Julia is currently limited by its ecosystem (although it does interface nicely with Python), but I don't see how Mojo is any better then.

Mojo to me looks significantly lower level, with a much higher degree of control.

Also, it appears to be more robust. Julia is notoriously fickle in both semantics and performance, making it unsuitable for foundational software the way Mojo strives for.

Sure, Mojo the language is more robust. Until its investors decide to 10x the licensing Danegeld.
