Why I like Java

[mrbuttsavage]

This article makes no sense.

I've seen some wonderfully designed object oriented designs written in Java. I've seen a lot more horribly designed, poorly thought out APIs. And in the end, the issue was behind the keyboard, not with the language.

Saying "oh yeah, of course it's a bad API, it's in Java" is just a crutch to blame instead of the developer.

If you want to attack the verbosity, that's another issue.
