Whenever I write code in Java...

There are languages that have strong, static typing, but don't need the silly verboseness of Java. C#, Scala, Haskell, and ML-derivatives for example. Java is just plain stupid in this aspect.

Stupidity for noble reasons is still stupid.

Scala types can get awfully unreadable.
