It's fun to hate on Java (cause who here hasn't hit stupidity with Java?), but the fact is that Java does a lot right.
There are two types of languages, the languages people hate and the languages no one uses.
- jlgreco 13y agoThere is a third type of language: languages that people hate so much that no one uses them anymore. For values of "no one uses" that set up the "like"/"not used" dichotomy, I'd say Perl is in both categories. With any luck Java will get there too one day, even if the JVM doesn't follow it.
- twic 13y agoWith any luck, all the languages we know today will get there too one day, as they are rendered obsolete by further decades of experience with programming languages. Well, except LISP, obviously.
