This kind of thing in particular is really interesting:

  public static void print(String text) {
    System.out.println(text);
  }

This person cares enough about brevity to make little wrapper functions like this, but at the same time everything is very procedural and monolithic. This gives a vague, weird sense of refined taste, despite some obvious problems with the artifact as a whole.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the programmer came from a C background (where brevity tends to be valued and abstractions tend not to be) and used Java because it's cross-platform.
