As a guy who swears by Elixir, I completely support you.
I'd wish somebody to sell Elixir to me with transparent parallelism, demonstrating that it's literally 2-3 extra lines of code (compared to other languages where the extra code you have to write is significant). Pepper it with pattern matching and preemptive concurrency and I'm sold in 5 minutes.
I wish people stopped evangelizing.

Saša Jurić - The Soul of Erlang and Elixir: https://youtu.be/JvBT4XBdoUE https://youtu.be/JvBT4XBdoUE This is in my opinion the best demo of Elixir, the BEAM, OTP and any programming language, ever. If this doesn't pique your interest, nothing will.
- srikz 4y agoI was already fascinated by Elixir, but this video drove the nail home. It's a great presentation and I don't think I have watched any conference talks (on YouTube) without taking a break except this one.
