I've got those scars but I still find erlang refreshing when working with it. Unfortunately, as software engineers, we work in groups and there are many people having these scars. However, the erlang experience changes one forever.
As you said, unfortunately programming turned out to be quite the tribalistic activity indeed.
I got severely disheartened that 2-3 casual mentions of Elixir were enough for several people in this thread to attack and quickly stereotype me. I think I'll just keep quiet, or at least not mention what I work with. This seems to get the message across much better.
