So i'm young. What makes JSPs bad, why aren't you using them anymore and what are you using instead?

I think it's the "all the logic in the presentation code" that is emphasised as bad, and that is what you saw in typical JSP example code 15 years ago.

"Mainstream Java" then tried to sell EJBs as the answer, which was another world of pain.
