This is factually incorrect. The behavior you describe with Elixir (sic) is precisely what most Rust async runtimes do. (sic because it's Erlang that's to thank

This is factually incorrect. The behavior you describe with Elixir (sic) is precisely what most Rust async runtimes do. (sic because it's Erlang that's to thank) IMHO that is the sensible thing to do for pretty much any green thread or highly concurrent application. e.g. Golang does the same: panicking will only bring down the goroutine and not the whole process.
