Turns out language creators are pretty good at their language

This is good. 😂

Reminds me of a funny story a coworker told me. He was interviewing someone for the position of Elixir consulting; basically we needed someone to vet certain choices we were going to make.

He's grilling this guy on Elixir and he's good, my coworker says. The meeting ends and later in the day he tells the team all about it.

Turns out he was grilling Jose Valim, Elixir's creator hahahahahaha

This is a story I'm never going to forget I still laugh about it.

Seems sensible. Yet making a language successful enough to offer jobs remains a pretty difficult task.
