That is so simplified that it's basically just wrong. Nuclear power has been very unpopular in Germany since before Chernobyl. Phasing it out was a core goal of the Green party since its founding. They implemented it (on a decades-long

The Jon Skeet article you're citing mentions only java.util.Date, and it is in fact absolutely fair to say that this class "fundamentally misunderstands what dates are at a conceptual level" in all of its functionality that g

Say what you want about Java, but back- and forward compatibility have always been a big priority and part of its success story. No Java developer would be surprised at 30 year old code just working (ironically, it's more likely than f
