I work in an industry where C++ still rules. I haven't ever written more than a few lines of Java. However, here's a job posting from our web team: http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/company/careers/posting.html?id=120000E http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/company/careers/posting.html?id... Java is the only language mentioned by name. Last time I talked to them about a thing I was working on and mentioned I would soon have (now actually do have) a Python implementation, the response was basically "That's neat, but can you do it in Java too?" So, in my little world at least, web development is the only place where Java actually does get used.
