Can you do similar stuff with clojure or Scala? Maybe there's a way to avoid the bad parts

- dnissley 10y agoThese days there are workarounds to avoiding a lot of xml configuration in the java ecosystem (although you end up with a decent amount of annotations). Spring boot is a great example of this.

- reitanqild 10y agoActually for many of us it isn't bad. I have come to the point where I only look at other languages once in a while and it serves me well. A few years ago when I was still in farming we had the ostrich craze: ostriches were crazy profitable (or so the ostrich sellers said) and every farm needed to consider it. Eggs where $300 a piece etc etc. Of course the first to get one made great money by selling eggs, chicken and consulting hours to all the rest. The rest where not so lucky and today I don't know a single ostrich farm. Same goes for latest tech: if you want to you can try to be first and make a good living on the hype stream.
- brightball 10y agoThat's the nice thing about JVM languages. They get all that infrastructure without having to use Java straight up.
- softawre 10y agoYeah. And Kotlin.
