I really like Elixir... but to say it's ruby 3x3 isn't quite fair. While the syntax is ruby-like, even the simplest ruby program isn't directly portable to Elixir. It's definitely something different, so saying things like this is misleading.

It'd be closer to say: > Ruby 3x3 is here already. It's called Crystal ;)

Definitely check out Elixir and Crystal though if you need more performance.
