Java developers are what's wrong with java? no.
- mindcrime 16y agoBlah, blah, blah, Java, blah, XML, blah, EJB, over-engineering, blah, blah, blah, web services, blah, blah, java, culture, blah, ejb, blah, transactions, blah, blah, blah, yada, yada, yada. I call bullshit on this entire discussion. There are good and bad programmers using all languages and platforms, a bad programmer can write FORTRAN in any language; complex solutions are sometimes called for, and sometimes not; sometimes the "pragmatic" thing to do is to build in flexibility for unanticipated scenarios, sometimes doing so is just over-engineering. None of this has a damn thing to do with Java (or any other language, library or platform) per-se... it's just hip to bash Java and Java programmers these days. It's what the cool kids are doing, so it must be right, no? Let's just quit wasting our time on these pointless discussions and worry about building cool shit; whether we're building it in Java, C#, Python, C++, Ruby, Haskell, Erlang, Scala, Clojure, Groovy, Tcl, Perl, Ada, APL, FORTRAN, COBOL, RPG/400, PL/I, Intercal, Brainfuck, Befunge, Whitespace or whatever.
