Elixir people might cringe but why wouldn’t you just be 100% Go?
- lawik 3y agoGo people might cringe but why wouldn't you just be 100% Rust? Actual response: Some similarities, different goals, different strengths, different abstraction levels. Go is cool I hear but I don't see a need from over here doing Elixir.
- pg_1234 3y agoIn a concurrent environment Go is not guaranteed memory safe, leaving you exposed to silent errors of value ... which for Fintech is just suicidal.
- RSHEPP 3y agoBecause we live with our past decisions... All new services are in Go. The elixir service serves us well still.
- bsaul 3y agoCurious: why did you move from elixir to go ?
- innocentoldguy 3y agoWhy not 100% Elixir, since it is more robust and uses less resources?
