I've been reading about Elixir recently, yes. Thanks for mentioning it, though. I'll have to look at it at some point, but since my code is primarily run-in-a-browser, I'm currently stuck with compile-to-JavaScript languages. I'm concerned that Elixir is too functional for my tastes (I find Haskell to be too pure (and slow) to be really usable for most tasks I work on, for instance), but I will give it a look at some point.

The entire point of writing in Go or Elixir would be to avoid needing to write an event based system in Rust (or C). Writing code as if it's imperative but getting the speed of an event-based system is what I'm looking for. Event-based systems are notoriously hard to reason about and debug.
