You should let Ericsson know the language that powers their telecom systems is an experiment.



Pretty clear that DannyBee was referring to their particular Elixir deployment environment, rather than to Elixir as a language, no?


It's FUD aimed at a particular language, though. If you know anyone inside Google you probably know how regularly people "experiment" without pushback; all of the internal Dart projects, for example.


Being the person in charge of the new language process, I'm just going to tell you your information is not correct.


Can you explain to me then how Elixir is more experimental than Go was when it was deployed in its early days?


Err, I thought I was quite clear that the experiment is people using the new-to-google language, not the language itself
