Java is the real patrician language.
The reason plebs hate it is because they are forced to take programming classes, even though they don't want to become programmers (let's say a Math major, or a CS major who wants to become sys admin, for example, or a CS major who just wanted to make muh games), and then project their hate of programming onto Java.

Once you actually use Java for a while, you see how great it really is, most people fail because they don't have what it takes.

Not even baiting.

It's a good illustration of the principle that the more powerful a language is, the more obnoxious it is to learn

Then don't use it that's it...

Everyone should use whatever language feels comfortable, thats about it no memes no nothing.
You like C,? Good.
You like Haskell? Good.
You like java? Good.
You like <insert name of programming language>? Good.
...

I don't get the hate towards java, since it's one of the most used languages and can get you a good job if you what are you doing and not being a cuck.

C# is better.

Using Java after learning Lisp just makes you want to gouge your eyes out. No thanks.

Getting real tired of this anti-OOP circlejerk

I like Java as a language but I don't like the platform. Thus, C#

I wasn't even talking about how it looks, but Lisp does also look better if it's indented properly (which any half-decent editor takes care of).

Gladly

hasn't the hating java meme been gone for quite some time now?

that being said, i think a lot of the bad rep java gets actually comes from the context it's seen in. or in other words: java is the new corporate language.
>>
>>53795788
I love programming in every single language I've tried so far, and for some reason I hate Java.
>>

It's always been the corporate language.

>>53795788
Java isn't too bad unless you have fewer than 64GB RAM

It's literally named after the only thing that brings you joy in your cubicle.

you can do normal non oop in oop if you just use only 1 class

people here just hate popular things

>>53795788
>and then project their hate of programming onto Java.
But I love Haskell, C, Rust, Idris, Prolog, Mercury and other languages designed by actual computer scientists.

I just think Java is mostly a joke. I don't hate it, per se, I just don't take it seriously. Same as I don't take PHP seriously.

I broadly agree, it's a good language, and is usable at many levels. That said, I wouldn't have agreed with you 10 years ago, the language has evolved phenomenally (not least as applets are no longer a buzzword).

You can even get high performance stuff working on it nicely, I had a job where, for whatever reason, we had the NAG libraries in Java - it took a bit of effort but performance was achieved.

It took 2x as many manhours to do the C++ project. what's the point?

>>53798426
You see parens. I see the tree graph.

>>53798353
Sounds interesting. I really don't know much about the subject matter though. I imagine it has to do with machine learning? That's something I haven't really dived into yet. This new job may allow me to learn and utilize it though. What is the best resource for learning more about this subject?

Mainly the fact it has an unnecessary amount of boiler plate syntax. Also, people dislike the jvm and oop.

Patrician language? More like poo in loo and cs student code monkey language.
>>
>>53798670
Efficient code is the point. I'm not going to let your code touch my machine if it's going to waste my system resources.
