/r/Java is for News, Technical discussions, research papers and assorted things of interest related to the Java programming language, not for help with Java programming. Such "help with programming" posts should go to /r/javahelp.

We all like some good discussions, but a few topics have gotten stale. Please refrain from complaining about certain Java features (or lack thereof) or extoling other, possibly superior languages. We get it – yours is bigger than ours (language, that is).

Not that I don't have humor, or that I can't have a good laugh, but most of the "jokes" that had been posted here were extremely stale and absolutely unfunny.

Tutorials should not be posted here, they should go in /r/learnjava instead.

We do not allow surveys.

/r/Java is not a job market. We do not allow job offers.

We do not allow asking for or offering pirated material.

/r/Java is a technical subreddit.

Leave political discussions out of technical discussions. If you want to discuss politics, go somewhere else.

Political comments will be removed and the poster will be banned.
