As far as the "killing innovation" thing. Thats incorrect. Browser manufacturers and HTML/CSS/JS have killed innovation.

Screen layout was a solved problem 40 years ago.

Also search has killed innovation by turning sites into content factories instead of building things that matter.

Google was and is a very bad steward of the web and is rightly dethroned by even fake AI.

I doubt we'll feel that way in 5 years.

The biggest problem with Java these days is java developers are not really good at all. I would say n the last 10 years 99 percent of "Java" devs cant competently read a stack trace.

Im not sure why anyone would improve this language when the developers are so frankly pathetic. Let them use 1.8. The ecosystem has improved. Devs have gotten worse.

Java has become a land of opportunists just trying to pass of their non-Java maybe non-programmer skills

Trust me if google can do something anyone can. They are trying to "define" what "they" "want" from a "compliant workforce"
