  Java is everywhere. You wouldn't see it on hacker news but rest assured major corporations around the world are still using java and will still be using java for years to come. I do acknowledge some may switch to dot net.

    s/Java/COBOL/ig on your comment and it's just as true.

      And COBOL is a horrible language. But, I still think Fortran was pretty sweet. Also still has a pretty large user base. Especially among engineers.
