Please don't do this sort of thing. It's crass and it's wrong besides.

  Appeal to disgust fallacy. Let people mourn how they will.

  It’s not crass to honor Joe’s legacy. It’s on topic and relevant.

    That's not what you're doing. You're shitposting about Elixir developers--while Joe was enthusiastic about Elixir to the point of being a mod on elixirforum.com. Stop.

      "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer." If you knew Joe, you'd know he was strict about feature-creep in Erlang. He removed Paramaterized Modules, even though it broke some popular Erlang projects -- including the Chicago Boss Web Framework. This was one of the reasons Elixir was created. To make it more "approachable" to people who didn't have the inclination to be FP purists.
