I'm at the beginning of my career and have two offers at the moment. I need to choose, and it will impact my CV in the future.
>Working with C# and Microsoft technologies
>Working with Java
Which should I choose? Please note that I have very little experience with both.
C# no debate about it
>>54277952
c# as a language is better than java but it depends what kind of job you want. Usually there are more java jobs.
>>54277952
C#, no doubt, is Java done right.
MS is a big company, so you'll have some level of job security too. Do us all a favor and help dismantle their PC culture from the inside.
>>54277952
C# has the better language.
Java has the better runtime and ecosystem, and you could jump to Kotlin or Ceylon (which are better languages) without abandoning that ecosystem.
Also, for the moment you cannot do real C# coding on Linux and to a lesser extent, OS X.
>>54277952
C#
But you should be asking for what purpose? Those 2 languages make insane amounts of money in web dev with ASP.net or Spring, sure, but pure JS with node is climbing up the salary ladder. It might be a better investment to learn that since you will be doing JS anyway (assuming your choice between the 2 languages is financially-motivated)
Isn't both almost the same but different syntax wise?
>>54278233
All languages are largely the same. The major difference is their ecosystem
Only Pajeets pick Java

Better than Pajeet Java shills

Are you choosing between two different jobs?
Frontend vs backend or embedded vs enterprise matters, but java vs c# does not
C# if you're making desktop application.
Java if you're writing server backend.
No sane person would choose C# for server backend unless they're forced by the management group.
>>54278531
>but java vs c# does not
Are you really sure?
Both jobs are on back-end, by the way. Web services, security, encryption.
>embedded vs enterprise
what do you mean by this?
>>54278393
Didn't even read my post nigger. I suggested to stay with Java's ecosystem but ditch the language.
I'd say anyone who defends Oracle Java that much before Microsoft C# is the true Pajeet. Hell, Nutella has a patent pledge while Oracle is suing Google for using Java on Android; if C#'s main IDE wasn't Visual Shitdio I'd even say it was a honest to god FLOSS language.
>>54277952
OP it doesn't matter; the languages are the same, the work is the same, and neither will bring you any happiness long term.
>>54278649
But I want to choose the one that will open more doors for me in the future.
I hate writing JAVA. Like running it on any machine.
I love writing C#. Hate being somewhat confined to Windows/VS.
>NB4 MonoDevelop
C# if CV is your only concern.
>>54278789
>java used 3 times more than C#
>C# if CV is your only concern.
Where's the logic in that?
>>54278663
IMHO, programming language is the second thing.
The most important is your experience when developing software.
Is the software design good ?
Is it maintainable in a long run ?
Is it supposed to be one of build-and-forget ?
How about deployment target ? Will you stuck with certain vendor lock-in ? Is the offered target server price competitive ?
etc...
>>54278942
The C# offer is about a scalable web-services layered arquitecture and I'll be using SCRUM and KANBAN. That's why I'm more inclined to this one.
>>54279004
>>54278942
Also, REST web-services. I'll also be offering support for old applications, but I can't have everything.
>>54277952
Both are for Pajeet Pooinloo. You should learn Lisp via either Scheme/Racket or Common Lisp.

Of course, it depends on where OP lives, but in my (first-world) country the requests for programmers knowledgeable in C# vastly outweighs those used to Java. Not that the languages are very different anyway.
>>54279041
>You should learn Lisp via either Scheme/Racket or Common Lisp.
If he's to learn an old language he might as well learn COBOL which offers some actual job opportunities.
>>54279121
>COBOL
started learning it for lulz and it's comfy as fuck
>>54279004
this sounds good
>>54279167
> COBOL
> not ALGOL

Which is why i would say it's better for you to put in a layman term about your software advantage.
ie: rather than saying you're good in certain language, it's better to say you're good in Service Oriented Architecture design.

>ALGOL
