      Elixir is running on the BEAM. It wasn’t invented until 2012, though, so it couldn’t have become popular in time to influence the JVM or Netscape.

        Yes, I’m aware, I’m more wishing it was elixir rather than saying it was actually possible.

        I took a glance at it a while back, and it looks like Elixir + Go. Meh. Elixir could use gradual typing (and it’s coming along there), but turning to Go isn’t the answer.
