> Java is fun to write, productive
What the hell? I don't think we have the same definition for any of these words.
I know Java has changed quite a bit since Java 8 (Java 9 being the last version I used professionally before switching completely to Go), but I just can't write Java again, it's physical. When I want to try a new Java feature and think about writing the scaffolding code, my stomach actually hurts.
Not to mention the pain point that it still is to install and configure a JDK, and make it work properly with Intellij, why is it still so complicated?
Then there's Maven and Gradle that are just... bad, I have no other phrasing. I hear a lot of people saying Maven already solves all the problems we have with today's tools but that's just not true, even the entire Maven stupid lifecycle should be thrown away!
