This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm sorry just as a matter of policy I'm going to have to downvote you for saying you like java. Nothing personal.
I think some things that were novel when java came out are such old hat at this point the 1990s benefits just aren't benefits anymore. Run anywhere? I'm in a html app right now. As is my IDE and my chat app. Strong interfaces and sane types are only in comparison to the bizarroland of c++ which visibly always seems to basically be word vomit. JIT compilation is in python which is both easier to use and has way better tooling and libraries...making python today run in the "fast enough" category that java was kinda in. I've literally never seen a usable java UI tho.
Minecraft is a decent example of a good java program. People jump to the first silly reason to disregard it. Cope.
You seem very butthurt over a joke, be chill
Have to admit I didn't know Minecraft was in java. Explains the graphics ;p
I didn't mind your opinion, but now I have to downvote anyway. An opinion this uninformed doesn't have any right to exist. Minecraft was the sole reason for the current generation of Java devs, it's literally the Statue of Liberty of the United Javates, the first thing those poor huddled masses saw before landing in the New World.
Very fair
