addressed at the very top of the article A note on terminology: Throughout this post I refer to "the BEAM." BEAM is
the virtual machine that runs both Erlang and Elixir code, similar to how the
JVM runs both Java and Kotlin. Erlang (1986) created the VM and the
concurrency model. Elixir (2012) is a modern language built on top of it with
better ergonomics. When I say "BEAM," I mean the runtime and its properties.
When I say "Elixir," I mean the language we write.
