I don't understand the conclusion. Java is certainly verbose and a fair bit aggressively ugly, but it has consistent syntax and I've never before heard anyone describe it as broken. care to amplify?
- bane 11y agoWell, not exactly comments, but Java's annotation system is an ugly kludge that should be part of the language and not an attempt at reintroducing C-style compiler directives. The abuse they suffer under various frameworks and ORMs is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen in a language. In almost every-case they either serve little to no purpose, or would be better-off just being part of the language syntax. But now you have to learn Java, and the Java-annotation meta-system. At least they aren't written in XML. note I actually don't mind the Java Community's habit of usingLongNames for things, and the actual language is pretty small and nice.
