How to make a programming language on Erlang VM or JVM in rust?
The gleam language might be of interest to you.

How WhatsApp scaled to 1 billion users with only 50 engineers
There is gleam which is a statically typed language that runs on BEAM, but it’s not 1.0 yet. Elixir with type specs and pattern matching is pretty good but not perfect.

Application with Elixir, business logic with Gleam
One of the young programming languages I look at from afar and root for is Gleam. It is a statically typed language for BEAM, written in Rust. Similarly to Rust, if focuses on catching many potential bugs at compilation time and providing useful error messages, so it's easy to fix them. Since it's targeting BEAM, it can easily interop with other BEAM languages, such as Elixir or Erlang. And this fact allows to overcome some issues that languages in their infancy stage usually have.

Which is the best Rust scripting language for Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)
These are the scripting languages i saw recently gluon, gleam, dyon, rune, mun. I like mun most because it resembles rust most. There is also this and this thread.

Elixir at Ramp
So what do you recommend? Rust? JS? TS? Java? C++?
I'd not recommend Scala for other reasons: being multi paradigm makes it hard to learn, read, re-read and collaborate on. Kotlin would be a more sensible choice on the JVM imho (no implicit nulls, fully OO at the core with FP where it makes sense in that context, sum-types, exhaustiveness checks, no exception/annotation frenzy like Java).
And Erlang misses types. Gleam[1] looks cool, and seems to be picking up steam.
Rust is an amazing choice if you need that kind of low-level control over performance in all it's dimensions (except built times).

Gleam 0.15 – Type-safe language for the Erlang VM
Nothing has been officially announced but it is something that is being worked on. There is a milestone for it on GitHub https://github.com/gleam-lang/gleam/milestone/17
I expected we'll have an initial offering within the next half year.
Please take a moment to read the project's Code of Conduct:
https://github.com/gleam-lang/gleam/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUC...
It says that if you're a contributor, people can make anonymous complaints about you, and you will be judged and punished without being afforded the right to face your accuser and full access to the accusation and the evidence (that is, a "confidential" adjudication procedure).
Naturally, you can be punished for very vague offenses, under the title of any "conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting". It's not even any conduct which _is_ inappropriate in the setting of the project - it's enough that someone could subjectively consider it inappropriate, and in a different professional setting. In other words: Very easy to cook up charges as necessary.
If all of that is not enough - anyone who is deemed not to follow the code of conduct in good faith - i.e. it's not enough that you follow it, you have to show good faith about it - is an offender automatically. Even failing to actively _enforce_ the CoC is an offense.
Now, Gleam may not the only project with this kind of repressive project-criminal code; but this is quite saddening to see in a Free Software project.

There are a *lot* of actor framework projects on Cargo.
Thanks for the insight -- I personally can see benefit in remaking Erlang in rust just for the strong typing. At present I only know of Gleam which is typed Elixir and don't know any typed Elixir. I like types very much, and Rust is basically second to Haskell in my mind for expressive type systems that I like using.
