I'm like not that amazing of a programmer, but Java seems pretty legit. It's a lot of cruft to pull together and manage to make stuff work. But once it does it's fast and the codebase is fairly easy to mentally model and absorb. Yeah the boilerplate stuff is kinda annoying but whatever. Java with Akka adds the actor and some flow/functional stuff that seems to be useful for building a distributed and complex system that would be used in the future landscape of functional computing.
