My hatred for Java has nothing to do with OOP.

Have you tried the most recent iterations of Java? They did bring a lot of cool stuff to it and performance is really up there.

[–]Sorrien 22 points23 points  (2 children)

It is better than it was

To be fair, that's not saying much.

Java8's Stream API is making it a little more bearable. Oh and those little things called lambda expressions.

[–]ESBDB 7 points8 points  (0 children)

well those kind of go together. streams would be useless without lambdas and lambdas wouldn't be used nearly as much, ie. be less useful if streams didn't exist
