The funny thing is that Erlang is the Ericsson language. Go is the Google language.

Ericsson never had the Google "street cred" or K& not R. Ericsson is boring phone interchanges and boring radio. Google was hipster latte with software freedom before it turned out to be worse than MS, IBM and Oracle combined.

One might wonder what could have been without all the smoke and mirrors.
