As I have to in every post about Elixir on HN, I'm going to say it again: Aside from some syntax, Ruby and Elixir have nothing in common.

  Don't you say the syntax isn't there to attract ruby fanboys, or else why not just use Erlang.

    Tooling (mix, Hex, ExUnit), macros, Protocols for polymorphism, more natural feeling APIs in the standard library.
