It’s not hard to find people who want to write Java. I do it all the time. We have been hiring and writing Java code for fifteen years and have not seen a decline in the interest.
- wiseowise 4y agoIt’s hard to find quality people who want to write Java.
- 0xAFFFF 4y agoWhere I am it's hard to find quality people period. If anything targeting Kotlin or Scala developers usually yields slightly better developers but also further restricts an already small candidate pool.
- pritambarhate 4y agoReally? So you mean to say there are no quality people in the millions of Java programmers out there?
- kaba0 4y agoYou are talking about more people than there are people in my country (around 10 millions java devs are out there)
- wiseowise 4y agoI’m sure you can find a hole in your logic. (I’ll point it to you, millions of Java devs are not your hiring pool)
- impulser_ 4y agoI'm not talking about people that have been writing Java for years. I'm talking about new programmers. If you asked a new programmer out of college which job they would rather have I job programming Go applications or Java. I would bet 90% of them would pick Go.
- kaba0 4y agoAnd they will agains say the current hyped language a year later. It’s almost like we shouldn’t really cater to “new programmers out of college”.
- re-thc 4y agoSorry, it's hard to find you. I had to scroll down this page. It's even harder to find Rust developers and yet it's well liked - so? So? The funny part is most of the anti-Java logic is flawed. Maybe using Java will fix that for them :p
