Half of hn posts are people showing off things where they spent a herculean amount of effort reinventing something that elixir/erlang has had solved 30+ years already.
If people want to belittle something, either we aren't trying to solve the same problem (sure) or they're actively turning people away from what could be a serious advantage (more for me!)
If the cost of switching wasn't so high, I'd love to write Elixir all day. It's a joy.
