Working in a company where a transition away from Java is happening at the moment, in favour of other languages (mainly Go, partly Python) I can confirm at least the resistance from the people who mainly did Java in their carreer, compared to people who also wrote different languages.
Of course, it might also be because people who have worked in a variety of languages are already 'used' to learning a new language.
- erik_seaberg 8y agoI'm excited about languages where being smarter pays off in clarity. Java isn't great but Go avoided any of the improvements I'd like to see.
- fiddlerwoaroof 8y agoGo seems intent on relearning all the lessons of Java: e.g. you can’t have a useful statically typed collection library without generics.
