Character Sketches
Elixir
The jazz musician who studied classical. Elixir takes Erlang's battle-tested concurrency and wraps it in syntax so pleasant you forget you're building distributed systems that never go down.
JavaScript
The accidental emperor who conquered the world in 10 days. JavaScript was built as a toy, became the backbone of the internet, and still thinks '0' == 0 is reasonable.
