> Golang Evangelism Strike Force

Concurrency? Invented by Go! (quickly corrected by Elixir/Erlang strike force, but these, just like Golang, have worse throughput than a particular C family language I have a soft spot for).

Apologies, could not help myself as this response is amusing if sadly accurate (I do like Rust, but blind hostile evangelism tends to create the opposite to the desired outcome).

Elixir strike Force member here. Minor correction, concurrency wasn't invented by elixir, it was just perfected by it ;-D

(That's a joke for the record. Elixir mainly uses erlang's stuff, and it's based on the actor model, which was not invented by elixir or erlang. I do personally love it though, I believe it to be a great implementation.)

Ahaha, yes. Amazing. Even the evangelism strike force wasn't invented by Rust :)

It's a good point. These things always annoy me. Rust just happens to have the most vocal one these days.
