I wonder if the author has programmed in Java in the last 7 years? Most of his comments were accurate about 2015, but not since then. Perhaps like a mentor made

I wonder if the author has programmed in Java in the last 7 years? Most of his comments were accurate about 2015, but not since then. Perhaps like a mentor made a big deal out of these and he absorbed it.
It has become popular to hate Java, but again that goes back previous JDK's.
JDK 19 is a strong functional language that should not be dismissed lightly.
- yardie 4y agoJava has been around since '95. It shouldn't take a language 20 years to get good enough. That's an entire generation of burned programmers who know only of the shitty versions and that is still the majority of the existence of Java. The hate for Java was long brewing. I programmed Java way back in 2003 and I didn't like it then. C# was quickly catching and surpassed it. Almost 20 years later I have no reason to even try and go back to it. There are plenty of better options now.
- angryasian 4y agoIt was always good enough, and evolved with the times. C# was under tight control MS for most of that time, thats why Java was widely adopted. You can't make that statement without addressing the history of the two languages
