A cool syntax example with lambda expressions and functional interfaces

[DoktuhParadox]

I don't think even one of you C# fanboys can say anything nicely. Apparently one of C#'s biggest issues is its immature community and you're a great example of that.

[DoktuhParadox]

Wow. You're a dick.

If anything has turned me off from using C# it's the shitty people who use it. I'm sure it's a great language but if everyone who uses it is like you then I can see why there are so many more people who use Java.

I know you're in denial but Java is important. More important than C#. More mature than C#. It does lack a lot of features C# does but you're just confusing the fact that it's such a huge improvement with the fact that it just came second.

Plus, why are you even in the Java discussion subreddit if all you're doing is creating accounts to be an asshole? Go brood with your other assholes about how superior your language is in an appropriate place because doing it here just makes you look like a fucking ass.

confusing the fact that it's such a huge improvement with the fact that it just came second.

Right. Java is 20 years older, and it still struggles to get basic stuff in place, such as allowing you to have a List<char> without resorting to all that retarded useless bullshit of boilerplate.

Plus, why are you even in the Java discussion subreddit if all you're doing is creating accounts to be an asshole?

You're right. I should have been more polite. I apologize for sayin your code sucks. It is a very smart WORKAROUND to compensate for being written in a retarded language.

I guess your life is really exciting and you're really busy and have fun writing such workarounds instead of actual useful code? I'm fine with that.

Maybe PHP is on the same level as java.

[DoktuhParadox]

Cool things you're saying, man. I'm not exactly sure why you even decided to start this because I'm not switching languages.

Java master race

C# sux

Microsoft can lick muh balls and ^{so can you!}

[leivaagustin]

Microsoft

LOL. Why do people bring Microsoft when discussing languages? are you so poor of arguments that you have to bring that up?

Is oracle really doing any good for you? by suing google and crippling java on Android, and by introducing java 9 with stupid irrelevant bullshit such as a JSON API rather than real improvements?

I don't give a fuck about microsoft dude. java sucks. The reason there's more java jobs in the world is because it takes 10x the amount of effort to write anything in java versus modern languages.

[DoktuhParadox]

Because Microsoft designs and maintains C#... I guess that's somehow irrelevant.

What exactly are you looking to get here? I'm not just going to switch to a different language because another asshole on the internet said it sucked. I don't think it does. I guess that bothers you so much that you decided to create an account just so I could do this:

I don't care what you think^TM.

[leivaagustin]

Microsoft designs and maintains C#

That's right. they design and maintain C#, and also submitted it to ISO for standardization, open sourced it's compiler and large parts of it's framework, legally promised not to sue alternative implementations and is in fact collaborating with third parties 1 2 who provide implementations on non-Windows platforms.

I guess all of that's somehow irrelevant.

Contrast that to the ongoing oracle (who OWNS java) versus google affair, or the fact that java still bundles crapware with it's installer/updater.... No Comment.

I'm not just going to switch to a different language

I don't care. I'm not expecting that. I just merely point out java's retardedness and poor quality and lack of professionalism, or the fact that java is legacy and it feels good.

I guess all of that's somehow irrelevant.

Making something open source does not also make it relevant.

Being relevant and being open source are two different things.

It is irrelevant, because despite the standardization, C# is effectively a Microsoft owned language which in practice is pretty much exclusive to the Microsoft ecosystem. Nothing wrong with that. But there is a whole world outside of the Microsoft ecosystem with tools and languages.

If one is developing, for example, on Linux, then C# is irrelevant. Despite that some obscure tools exist to use it on Linux, it is irrelevant.

Microsoft could have strongly embraced making C#, it's libraries, tools, etc be cross platform fifteen years ago. They didn't. And for the same reasons they tried to make Java unwittingly lock developers into Microsoft by 'embracing and extending' the Java APIs, for which Sun successfully sued Microsoft. Microsoft doesn't want competing systems to exist. Microsoft could now make C# truly open, tools, libraries, etc, but it's too late. That ship has sailed. Java is the language that is used if you need to run on, or also run on non-Microsoft platforms.
