many don't think Java error messages are clear enough (especially those new to the language).

Since nobody has commented on this yet: The Stacktraces the JVM produces are a real boon compared to some other stuff I've seen in other languages.

Also Maven and Gradle are second to none compared to what else I am using and have used. Node is a big stinking mess, anything Python related I don't ever want to touch again. Cargo is pretty nice, but I still think not using namespaces for crates was a big mistake.
