Is it just me, or does this (and the last few milestones) read like a burning car crash?
The regressions around type parameter syntax and statics feel especially painful.
If the language keeps getting more and more compromised with every milestone, why not stick with Java 9? This hardly qualifies as a "better Java" anymore...
- coldtea 11y agoProbably just you. Practically over purity.
- bbatha 11y agoIt can compile to android, which is stuck with a roughly equivalent environment to java 7.
- jaysonminard 11y agoI've tracked Kotlin for 2+ years, and it has gotten better. The restrictions are to make sure that decisions that are made after 1.0 are not breaking, but permit more options. It is called "careful planning." No thanks, Java 9 is klunky.
