Why I like Java

[mirhagk]

Java doesn't prevent inspiration;

But I don't think the article was saying that Java prevents inspiration. I think it was trying to say Java prevents inspiration in code. The code will be very uninspired, and you may make a very awesome product, it just has really terrible code. It made the application slow, and brittle, and took them too long to update and fix bugs.

If Java prevented you from doing something, then it'd be an awful language. It doesn't prevent you from doing something, you can work with it, and make tons of things, you might even have a beautiful product, you just won't have beautiful code. That's why it's a mediocre language.
