> I work in an average org with average joe devs. an average joe dev to me is someone who "just wants a job" and is not very interested in furthering its own professional development or learning new things unless trained & forced by the job

so basically you're all doing things you hate, which is literally the worst possible work environment, and you're trying to use this as a data point for why Elixir "isn't for average coders". I have news for you, dude, you're not even at the "average coders" level, you just work in a "code mill", I'm guessing India.

you have an absolutely skewed perception of average in our field. I'm guessing "less than 3 years of experience".

nevermind the random stab, it's just to make you understand how random some answers are. in any case, no one is trying to touch your precious language, if you can't understand the context in which elixir failed (hot startup that HAD to hire everyone and its dog in 3 months + polyglot environment), not my problem
