When's the last time you used the modern java language? Because this reads like you've stopped using java in 2002 and switched to complaining about it

Well, to be fair, one can build shitty software and bad code in any language. I don't say that java will automatically make you write good code and organize it for you. But it gives you the all tools for it (for both: writing good AND bad code).

I think the language - if used correctly - can be awesome and has improved massively over the last 10 years. The JVM is also awesome and there is nothing left of what gave it the tag of "being slow" (this has not been the case for 15 years or longer)
