Somewhat agree with this explanation.
I started my journey from QBasic (high-school) to C/C++ (college) to Java to JavaScript and I have to admit that I use Java/JS the most throughout my career so my experience is biased toward my own personal experience.
Had I stuck with C/C++ for 10 years and dabble with Haskell/OCaml at night, I might feel different.
Once I got stuck in Java, I felt very comfortable there.
- ncmncm 7y agoYes: http://blog.plover.com/prog/Java.html http://blog.plover.com/prog/Java.html Money quote: "I enjoyed programming in Java, and being relieved of the responsibility for producing a quality product."
- hello_moto 7y agoMeh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. It is his opinion, not a fact. I never believe in connecting programming language with quality product because I see no evidence.
- ncmncm 7y agoI don't doubt his enjoyment, or his reason for it. People gravitate to work using languages with characteristics that suit them. Most people coding Java would be less happy with something else, and most people using something else would be less happy obliged to use Java.
- hello_moto 7y agoYou have a point there. Though, I can accept JS and Go (the last one takes a while).
