At the end of they day class names like that solely come from the GOF design patterns. Nothing to do with any language. I think I’m ready to leave the software industry now too to be honest.

Using Java doesn’t mean you have to name everything AbstractFactoryFactoryBean. That’s just general bad development no matter what language is used. My personal hate is over engineered solutions with too many latest fashionable technologies

You have to give them some credit that Java is still around however. It won’t go without a fight :-)

At university were told that we were running out of ip addresses as in the future even fridges would have an ip address so it could have a web cam to see what you needed to buy at the supermarket. I wish they had told us about cryptocurrenc

Wow. Marked down for a self depreciating joke. Good old HN, a jovial vortex.

I’d think you don’t really need redis or elastic search in about 80% of the places you see it. You certainly don’t need the baggage.
