On: Java Doesn’t Suck

[ohitsdom]

I'm a .NET developer and I love C# & Visual Studio but have worked some with Java. Most of his arguments sounded to me like- "Just do complex-sounding long list of steps, it's easy!" Java development seems like a massive pain, and too much time not actually spent on development.

Maybe it's my similar background, but that's how I read it as well.

My TL;DR summary of that article is "Java doesn't suck, as long as you use enough tools, libraries and workarounds to avoid actually using Java."
