I just started learning JAVA and I can't believe how awesome it is. The best thing about it is that I can run it in virtually every OS out there. Same can't be said of the other languages.

And what's more, the API is so rich I can do *anything* with it. The logical design makes it so easy to use, too!
I like Java. Reading good Java code is like reading a good poem.

Reading Java is like stabbing yourself in the eye repeatedly with BASIC.

JAVA is FAIL. Learn to use C and the standard C library.
Or just STICK TO ONE OS. if others don't run a OS yuor program runs on, they can go FUCK THEMSELVES, or you can GIVE OUT YOUR SOURCE (*gasp*, what a concept! </sarcasm>) and have them PORT IT TO THEIR OS.
It's worked for everyone else for the past 30 years.
The developer? A language that allows guaranteed fallible humans to do dangerous things easily is naive.

My dear friend, please think carefully about what was written.
It's one thing to let people do dangerous things. It's another to allow them to do it easily. Note the "easily".
Hyperbole and knee-jerk won't get you far in this discipline.

if you try to make everything that could be dangerous difficult, you'll end up making mundane tasks difficult, too.

First, the "everything" and "could" is solely your own interpretation. Second, I'd like you to elaborate on that assertion a little.
Java makes it very easy to become fucking stupid, and that's dangerous. In fact, that's the only path with java: to become a fucking stupid clueless moron.
That's right, they're all the idiots, and you losers see through the bullshit.

The ratings are based on the world-wide availability of skilled engineers, courses and third party vendors.
Supply and demand. Supply and demand.
MacDonald's is also in high demand...

Correct, we can see through the bullshit that Enterprise Scalable Web 2.0 AJAX managers can't. Sun hopes to keep you stupid, and it's working; on you anyway.
5 "skilled engineers" to build a steaming pile of shit vs. 1 to build a solid product. Naturally the steaming pile of shit builders will be "in demand."

thats wrong, you should use public static int main()

Yeah, I'm fucking talking to you, /prog/ and all of you stupid asswipes who post here with your shitty wannabe elitist crap.
I run a Linux server. I wanted it to handle my torrents instead of me. I wanted to be able to access it via a web browser, and have it run constantly. I did not want a gui at all. There were not a lot of choices for me. Basically btpd and Azureus.
After some consideration, and reading, I chose Azureus. Never knew it had a console-only mode. I installed it. This necessitated me to install the Java runtime. You guys have commented on various occasions about the slowness of Java and memory leaks. So I was worried.
Well, assholes, the shit's been running for about two weeks (on my server which has an uptime of 43 days) and the performance of my server has not been impacted, even when it's handling three simultaneous torrents. Nor is it a memory hog, and I don't notice an increase in it's memory footprint over time.
Azureus rocks. Fuck off, you dumb motherfuckers.
Oh, and my server isn't a powerful machine. 500Mhz Celeron CPU with 256MB RAM running 2.6.19.
Again, fuck off.
In before flurry of memes, useless comments, faggotry, and Redcream flood.
>>55-57 Sage is not a insult.
Contrary to popular belief, sage should never be considered as a rude gesture or insult. In fact, someone writing insults or trolls to the thread and posting with sage are doing a good thing, since their useless post won't be brought to the attention of the rest of the board. The idea of sage being an insult came from imageboards, where filling up a thread with enough posts would get it removed. However, threads on channel4 take one thousand posts before they are closed, so the effect doesn't work here.

Yes it is. I had to do some major Java crap once and it was a huge fucking headache to make everything compatible. It still only ran on a subset of available JVM's.

Obvious troll is obvious.
Regardless, I will bite: any VM-based or directly interpreted language can do the same. Some are even less retarded than Java is. Java's major features: broken object system, horribly overengineered class library, stupid programming conventions, reliance on get/set methods for everything... In work here I saw a Java class one of the other guys (who is better at Java than I am) wrote and it was about 200 lines of code LARGER than a class I wrote in Python. They worked identically, yet mine was 50 lines, his was 250... Yay for Java..
Likes the Web and it seems that just these two practices is that I can run Java without a virtual machine My favorite feature is the enterprise quality of Java After I graduate I plan to move to Japan and not in china or corea korea.
