       Yesterday's post about the swirling chaos that lies beneath the prim facade of Elixir went down about as well as could be expected.
       
       Lots of handwaving about solid foundations & ancient Swedish telephone systems. Lots of questions about why I'd dare to peek behind the curtain and not just use a prebuilt Elixir wrapper like a good boy. Even claims that Erlang's documentation is in fact good.
       
       Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. (It's not.)
       
       Oh well, let the Erlang tail wag the Elixir dog. Those dead-enders have nowhere else to go & nothing else to defend. Time for me to move on to another adventure.
