C# is basically a "Microsoft Java". They tried this already with J# and their own runtime, but then got sued and decided to make their own JVM but this time with blackjack... and hookers.
- baq 2y agoC# for the first three or so major versions was more Microsoft Object Pascal With Braces than anything.

- wongarsu 2y agoMicrosoft Java makes it sound likes it's an inferior clone. Rather C# is Java reinvented with the benefit of hindsight, and improved with new concepts and sound language design from there. Both languages have a too enterprisey ecosystem for my taste, but when given the choice between Java and C# I would take C# every time. Though modern Java certainly made efforts to catch up again.
