How can you even say this?

Regex is very specific. It has added records, streams, virtual threads (preview I think) working with native better, pattern matching...

Java is like C++. Everyone talks bad about it but at the end of the day it is one of the most Getting things done language.

I am not sure why I should use Kotlin. Llokd nice! But for sure docs and support are not even close to Java.

Are you seriously comparing Java to C++?

One excels at helping you shoot yourself in the foot. The other gets things done…

With the passionate hatred both languages inspire, I'm not sure which is which in your statement.

One could argue C++ gets even more done, since it is appropriate for use in more contexts, like firmwares/drivers, native SDKs, games, etc. Java's main use cases have strong competition in languages like C#, Go, C++, Python, etc.

I see you have not used C++. Let me tell you that with all its quirks, it can do way more than any language low-level wise and go back to high level.

Of course some people just rant about it. But did you guys use it a span of time long enough to really know how good or bad it is actually?
