Go. Nothing strikes a balance of ease and performance like go

Overall, I think I prefer elixir, but is probably choose go as well.

Not just ease and performance but popularity. I could be happy in only go for the rest of my life. Currently a Rust dev and I don't know if I can spend the rest of my life with lifetimes. They are an emotional challenge..

I've wanted to have an excuse to learn Elixir for a couple years now. It seems fascinating to me, but I just can't get started.
