Appreciate all the work done by the Elixir team on this. If at some point something makes the type system unfeasible, does it mean it would be unraveled from the compiler or is it safe to say what's been released now is there for good?

A process has its data isolated somewhere in memory, if something happens to that memory, the process will crash next time it runs and starts causing supervisors to start attempting to recover the system

Genuinely curious why it's not very good. Were you speaking solely from the perspective of non-Erlang processes? And also specifically regarding remote messages rather than local?

I'd love to hear more about this. Do you have any reading material or tutorials that helped you get started?
