Go and Elixr have very wide spread industry uses. Rust while promising (I use it heavily myself) still hasn't seen much industry adoption. I'm confident it wil

  Second this. Given your couple of bootstrap areas too, either language (or both) will be beneficial. I will say though that in most low level systems that demand absolute performance or that have been around for quite a while it is still mostly C/C++ based. So if you are wanting to break into those areas, then C is going to be the language to know really well. I have worked on a number of telephony systems and am familiar with a few financial trading platform architectures, and C is really core and popular in both domains. Other languages are used in both domains, but just wanted to toss that out there to you.

  > very wide spread industry uses I think you need to be very careful with this and quantify it more. I suspect that if you graphed Go + Elixr on a graph with either LOC deployed, new LOC written, expected future projects or jobs available it wouldn't even be visible on the same scale as C# or C++. Compared to Java you'd have to do some sort of dramatic log scale or something to see it.
