"Java is just is bad" is not a ringing endorsement.

  Heh. I'm not one of them, but a lot of people think Java would be mostly fine with just minor updates. In any case, I chose Java as an example because (sadly) it's what I'm forced to use in my day job, with some Scala side-projects (thankfully!). But I didn't mean to single Java out: a lot of the advice applies in general to software design, regardless of language. You know, "choose the right abstraction", "beware concurrency", "name things wisely", etc.
