> but are frequently overlooked to hire cheap, low-skill Java devs to write "yet another Spring app". Yeah, that’s why I labeled it culture since it was totally a business failure with contracting companies basically doing the “why hire these expensive people when we get paid the same either way?” No point at ranting about the language, it can’t fix the business but unfortunately there’s a ton of inertia around that kind of development and a lot of people have been trained that way. I imagine this must be very frustrating for the Java team at Oracle knowing that their hard work is going to be buried by half of the users.
