Java
: "My argument is simple: Java worked so well because it hit the 80/20 point; for my money one of the loudest, cleanest 80/20 technology victories ever. Subsequent attempts to fill in the 20% were, well, mostly harmless. Until generics, which are a disaster."

Language
: "One of my rules when dipping my toes into a new Language is to check out how fresh, and how many stars their common libs have. I like to see 2k+ stars, and I love it when I see the last update was this week. With java, not so many have many stars, and 3+ years since last update isn't uncommon."
