I agree -- I end up choosing things that larger enterprises wouldn't pick because most of my projects are specs of dust in comparison. What do you think about the angle of Go having a lot of potential (I honestly think it might replace java for large enterprises in 10-20 years?) because it's built for developer fungibility? If there's one things enterprises want to do, it's reduce the cost of employing resources, and employees are one resource that gets a lot cheaper when codebases are easier to pop in and out of, and you don't need a Java Spring MVC expert, but rather a golang dev fresh out of a coding bootcamp (or whatever actually good shorter-term switch-to-tech education trends come out in the future).

Well, we're talking in a thread about Quarkus, which uses the Java CDI annotations (specifically jax rs) so no need for enterprises to really deal with that complexity : ). Golang is used by a lot of startups, it lets you move insanely fast. Larger enterprise don't care as much about speed, but care more (allegedly!) about maintenance so as long as there are a ton of Java devs and consulting firms around, I don't see these enterprises switching over anytime soon. With the coming of Generics in v2, I think the language might start to gain a lot more adoption than it has today.
