This article is so ripe with wrong facts that it is hard to accept this is not an onion article. I hope most people disabled the Java browser plugin already. It is an abomination of ancient times (and imho worse than flash). But the article totally neglects that Java != the Java plugin. Yes, Java has bugs and I ran into most of them being a Java developer for years now, but it still is a very solid (if clumsy and inconvenient) system to build your applications upon.
