It was never the sexiest language, but for decades Java has been a mainstay of modern technology, and it's going to be with us for years to come.

    java was my 5th language, having just missed it as the AP CS language in highschool by a year. oddly i could not get behind such a massive standard library having come from BASIC, Pascal C++, ASM, VHDL. now after 30 years of programing i write Java web services for a living. feels strange.
