Us PHP devs be minding our own business but people be looking for trouble 🤣🤣

[TomNook.]

Its still used in universities, banks and well... everywhere. Maybe not in the Twitterverse.

There are two kinds of programming languages: There is one that nobody uses and the other one everyone complains about!

I love that whenever anyone hates in java they specifically pick out the hello world and declare it horrifically verbose.

[cupswithphones]

there are a dozen languages based on Java and javascript is *not* one of them...

[thisisnotok]

javascript is absolutely NOT based on java

[EasonTek]

javascript was not based off of java, it was originally called mocha but changed to javascript because of marketing.

You try writing an entire backend in python and i'll try writing one in java and i think we both know whose will have fewer bugs. Java is more verbose, but with modern IDEs and tooling, it's actually pretty pleasant to work in

[MAGIHAG]

It is nothing more fun than maintaining a huge software project written by juniors in a language like js or python.

Honestly, with a modern IDE, defining the main class is as simple as writing psvm and pressing tab. Printing is as simple as writing sout and pressing tab. The bigger annoyance I think is the occupation of screen space.

There are some non-intuitive things in Java, but compared to a language such as Python which has much weirder features such as multiple inheritance, next-in-line hierarchy, implicit data types, and lack of many design patterns such as function overloading, interfaces, abstract classes and proper access modifiers, it is still irreplaceable.

Really like java. It's easier to understand OOPs concepts in and spring boot is a great framework too. You can generate most of the boilerplate with few shortcuts

[otakukvothe]

Java dev here, I have worked with JS +Swift before, both modern languages, and Java won't feel awkward as long as you have a good IDE (IntelliJ). All the boilerplate stuff doesn't need to be typed, but inserted through shortcuts. So if u know your way around the IDE, it's all the advantages without the biggest disadvantages.

[arhanivaya]

The reason why people hate it, because they suck at it 😂😂

[theabbie]

Verbosity is only a problem for beginners, in large softwares, it improves readability.

[drcl]

drives you nuts when you are first learning it but as you become more mature you come to appreciate it and it does actually save a lot of time when you make use of objects and testing properly.

[ricdotnet]

Truth is if you pick on java and praise python you are not a programmer or software engineer. You just use other peoples libraries to make yourself look cool in front of your friends 🤣

[andrewclarke]

Java just makes me feel comfortable and at home in a way that other languages don't. It was far from being the first one that I learned, but everything in it just makes sense to me.

I always try to use the right tool for the job, but when there's no clear cut best, I often reach for Java because I just like it.

[kavk]

This guy makes me feel that I am smart

[riordan]

Its still one of those language that is hugely in demand.
I know some java devs who makes like 300K a year

"Strongly typed" - Honestly, a huge benefit for me. I know what each of my objects is going to be
"Compiled" - Compile times will be around 3 seconds for the average developer, so who cares? It also heavily increases performance
"Object Oriented" - Outside of C and possibly JavaScript (its a mess), I cannot name a single language commonly used which isn't object oriented.
