Efficient music players remain elusive

Thanks. I've heard of it. I am afraid it'll have to wait for if I ever start disliking Elixir though. ;)

I am open to new concepts but once I get the concept and I like it, I am rarely looking for it implemented in several different languages.

Sure thing, I just meant it as a "instead of switching to Go, perhaps Pony as a back-up to Elixir is more of your thing".

Although Pony has new concepts Elixir doesn't have ;)

(Personally, I enjoy watching lecture videos of new languages just for the concepts they introduce me to, even when I never program in them - I can recommmend the CurryOn! youtube channel)

I fully stand behind what you said.

It's just that I want to stabilize my skills and sell myself in new ways recently; thus I am more focused on perfecting what I can do and becoming an expert and a pro.

Lectures introducing new concepts are something extremely valuable!
