I never want to read another Bean or log4j config ever again.

  Didn't they all switch to convention over configuration and dependency injection so now your configuration is your source code?

    Some people did but that's actually worse. Your configuration comes magically out of nowhere and when it breaks you can't fix it.

      Nobody ever wanted to wire up RPC endpoints, in the form of Enterprise JavaBeans(tm), using XML files. That is one for the history books of ridiculous technology.

        XML files are bad. Invisible magic is worse. The sensible way to wire up a bunch of RPC endpoints is, like the sensible way to do most things, plain old code.
