How's Java giving user more control than Nim? The latter allows for hardware access like C/C++

I said C/++ was more control, Java was a middleground between the two. Nim is easier, but its memory usage and performance are harder to be sure about, because it hasn't been around as long.

With Java you can get it through JNI.

But if you're going that route, you'll be making your life a lot harder in the cross-platform department.
