Please. Java as a language is basically C++ with garbage collection and without pointers. It doesn't even have macros or anonymous functions (without a horrible syntax). Lisp destroys Java.

That being said, the JVM and its libraries are (contrary to Jeremy) fantastic. It's actually reasonably fast (that java bytecode is recompiled to native code under the hood), very portable, and there is a huge set of libraries you can use.

As usual, Loraen doesn't know what he's talking about. Java FTW.

If I had to program as a Career and then come home and do it on Project 1999 for you fuckheads I'd probably be gouging my eyes out with a fork by now.

Java sucks. It's slow, it's verbose, and its formerly redeeming quality (portability) is now achieved in less stupid ways in other languages.

Rogean, can you rename the griffin EC to A Peter Griffin, and have it say "Roadhouse!" every time it kicks during combat?

I really want to see this. It needs to shout Roadhouse! to the entire zone, though.
