Pro tip: Learn it if you have a personal concurrency project to implement in it that you intend to maintain for years to come. Do not learn it to get a new job in it, as the jobs are extremely rare, and moreover they require years of experience.
Since ZIG is new and is not teached in colleges, i assume most of ZIG jobs are for very experienced system programmers. C/C++ programmers with 10 years of experience also earn a LOT. (Except if it is a gamedev position.)
That's because there are very few Zig developers, and companies that are hiring for that are early adopters hiring senior developers. Also, these developers would not leave their good paying jobs if these companies would not pay well. So these 3 factors makes the average go up. The same rationale is applicable to Elixir, so this metric is basically useless to judge what's the language one should learn.
The salary is not just because of Elixir benefits, it's mostly because there are far too few people specialized in it. Fewer Elixir developers means you need to pay more to find one.
That’s partially true. Elixir is very scalable, it’s like Golang in that sense. Meaning if you have an application written in Node and thousands of users using it every minute AWS will charge you tens of thousands monthly, if you migrate the same logic to Elixir you will significantly reduce these costs.
Erlang absolutely does not have a dot at the end of each line, it's at the end of an entire statement, rarer than semicolons in the C family. I actually really like its approach to this portion of grammar which is closer to human (or at least latin-esque) grammar with commas separating instructions within a statement, semicolons separating components of a compound statement and periods ending a statement. A lot of Erlang grammar is ancient and weird for many of us and doesn't offer a good QoL, but the periods are probably one of the least offensive parts. The main problem with both Erlang and Elixir is that they're relatively niche in both their primary use cases and level of adoption. Sure, you'll probably get a job that pays well, but it will be harder to find and acquire. Though you did inspire me to move Elixir up my languages bucket list right to the second place, after Rust. Can't wait to know another very interesting language and not be able to find an opportunity to use it, just like with Erlang currently xD
Maybe the game developer is an interesting choose?

Learn it if you are interested. Learn something else if you are looking for a career in software development. Best choice now is C# which is the current language of the year (fastest growing of the major ones). Anecdotally I can say it’s a great language in so many ways.
I've been trying to learn elixir but a something that bothers me a lot is how hard (at least for me) is to configure it on neovim with cmp/mason. I would love a "Elixir for nvim" from you (:
I worked with elixir for a distributed system a few years back, it can be extremely powerful! It also just feel right to me, especially how functions are define, recursion, lists etc., would love to work with it again some day
Getting paid is a bad argument, its a skewed statistic, because you can get the same high pay doing a different language, but there are way less erl/elixir jobs and very few entry level positions. There are tons of JS entry jobs, so the average will be lower than Erlang, but that doesnt mean what you presented here.
Elixir is a language that I have wanted to learn for quite some time but until I get a job and become a great developer with Python, I will postpone it (due to work issues) jsjs. Thank you very much for your videos, they are great, greetings from Chile.
You bring up a great point! Skill level is by far more important, but there are languages, usually driven by the type of work that is done, that pay more than others due to supply and demand. I imagine the type of work that Elixir is used for is probably the driving factor behind the higher salaries.
1:55 ahh i see whats going on there, thats cool, i actually was confused at first since usually when u define a function in traditional languages, ur expected to create an identifier for the arg(s) ur passing. but it looks like in elixirs case u can define a function to do something based on the VALUE of the arg. so its basically the same thing as comparing the value of the arg passed in the body of the function in a simple if else or match/switch block in other languages.
@@dreamsofcode Nope, Elixir has high learning curves and its concepts are foreign. It was around longer but less known due to how hard its. Its somewhat similar to Objective C which was archaic and want to be abandoned by Apple now. You can produces prototypes faster with almost any languages but not with Elixir since it has somewhat baggage like Java and the rigidity also will stick. Problem is you can't really teach junior devs fast enough to catches up with the elixir concept in a big project hence they will produces sub par codes even if they follows framework specifically for Elixir. If you says it otherwise then sadly you probably aren't involved in such project yet 😅

@@fdg-rt2rk read more before typing a reply dude 😅 Code review 😂 Come on, if its large scale projects its just basically you want to rewrote them all if its garbage. Clearly you haven't involved with such project yet.

You're telling me that you're directly pushing the code written by your juniors/seniors to production? Also i asked how Elixir / what specific part of Elixir will make you lose/ruin performance?
Elixir devs have higher pay due to it being a more productive language. Capitalism is fair and equitable, and then equally shares the profits between…. NO. CAPITALISM DOES NOT! THE SHAREHOLDERS STILL KEEP ALL THE MONEY! But Elixir actually is very productive, and does only need smaller teams. This means they do tend to skew more senior, who happen to be higher paid. So it’s most likely due to that.
I tried elixir.. seemed nice at first, but then pipe operator is just dot syntax more complicated. I also hated phoenix folder structure. Makes no sense at all. Adding js to the web part? Seemed like hell to me.. maybe use it as an api, but still didn’t make sense to me. Auth generator? 🤢🤮 hated it
