For the past 14 years, the only time I really did any work with Java was a course in college. I don't like Java because it's corporate shit. Yeah Guy Steele and dozens of other giants whom I admire and suck cock off on a good day are the spec writers, and the original creators. But remember that it was initially a corporate language, and for this reason, it has ALWAYS been a darling to corporations. It is completely void of joy to do a libre project in Java. I know OpenJDK and several FLOSS implementations Java and JVM exist, for example Cocoa which is crated using Vmgen which I am currently using for an implementation of AWK. In fact I use OpenJDK myself as my primary Java implementation. But why is it that every pissant company has its own Java implementation (like IBM's Jikes, and I have always promised myself not to touch anything IBM touches because it would be 'unclean' then, IBM being source of everything that is dirty in the world

no BIOS does not count).

Plus shit like Maven and Gradle leave nothing to the imagination. Java toolchain is just 'eat shit and code, monkey!'. I am so glad I live faraway from the corporate world ,and the stench of Java.
