Haskell and lisp are cool! But they don't let me stand up a webserver quickly and easily, find some nicely licensed libraries, autocomplete the rest of the code, and be done with the data ingestion website by lunch. express, in node, and ktor, in Kotlin, are simply much faster ways to set up whatever you need than Elixir or Rust or what-have-you. I do my throwaway coding in Java, because it doesn't matter, and my durable coding in Python, because it must be in Python for wide adoption.
