I really respect Coda Hale for the work he has done on Dropwizard, and shares his views on Java vs. scala. As for the java-hate - in my 10 years of java-programming it has always been there. They used to complain about it not being portable enough, not performant enough, GC-pauses, start-up times, and lately that it's to verbose and non-functional. But java has persisted, and only improved over the years. I'm happy I've been able to (mainly) program in the same language for so many years. It makes me realize just how long it takes to truly master a programming language (or perhaps programming in general). I guess that's why they say "..it takes 2 weeks to learn a programming language, and 10 years to master it". It's an art, and the language is your tool. |

I was complaining that Java was verbose in 1999.
