Cause at some point most of them got tired to preach about Java and continue to do great work vs worrying what other people think.
Look around: NetFlix, Yammer, Twitter, Google are all using Java to power either their infrastructure or apps. Nobody blogs about it because "It Works" ;)
The rest blogs how they keep jumping between wagons :P
- metaphorm 14y agothis joke thing isn't really about Java as a language though. its about a very weird/bad and surprisingly common design anti-pattern. Java was used to do this joke because its utterly typical for this type of work, but certainly you can have this kind of disgusting enterprisey garbage in just about any programming language. nobody makes jokes at the expense of well written Java software because its well written. we all know that the language is perfectly fine, and in alot of ways quite good, when it is used by sensible engineers.
