Erlang

Lunatic & Ractor are interesting.

Notes

• Actors do not an Erlang make. What makes an Erlang: Isolation. A crash in an actor cannot bring down other actors. Cannot bring down the runtime. In Go panic crashes the program. In Erlang "panic" crashes an actor, and... that's it. Monitoring. The above makes an important property of the system: a process can be monitored, and when it dies you can be guaranteed to receive a message that it died, and why. This lets you build things like supervision trees that are impossible/hard/ineffecient(chose two) in other languages.
