This is a very novice thing to say, for any language. I've found it takes me about 3-6 months of regular use to start seeing the warts of a language (and a few more to learn how to work around them).
Erlang seems pretty boss (I haven't used it myself) but this post reads like "just buy a Mac and everything will be easier!!!" Unfortunately that doesn't take into account the user's experience and needs. Good luck switching to a tiling window manager on a Mac.
