Was there really a need for this article ? What if every Java developer who discovered the immense cerebral gratification in Scala decided to write an article with the theme "Aww shucks... Frick You Java, I wasted so much time on you damn it !!! I am going to Scala and I am never coming back." Also, the examples the author gives maybe weak. Inheritance breaks my code ? If it's code I don't own I use dependency management. If it's code within the same team then code review before commit ? The reference owning example for encapsulation assumes references are globally held ? (PS: Just using Java/Scala here but feel free to vote me down if the experience is different with other language pairs. Oh also that I am having dirty dreams of leaving Java and indulge in Scala's monads as I recently discovered I wasted time on Java)
