i'm not trying to convince you (or anyone, really) to stop using elixir. i am however encouraging you to engage deeper with the beam vm and it's actual properties and compare that honestly to what else is out there. what is it exactly about the beam vm and elixir that lets it achieve these latencies and why is this not achievable in other languages? simply saying the beam vm is better than other implementations isn't an answer to that question
Don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE doing that but my work time and employer priorities doesn't allow it yet (and might never). And I am starting to get really sick of extending my work time to my free time as well.
