Borklog: One entry

10 January 2001

I like to think of myself as programming language agnostic. Use whatever tool works to get the job done. Having said that, here's an article about Java: Slow, Ugly, and Irrelevant. I haven't done much work with Java, and what I have done I haven't liked. Having done 3 years of hard-core C++ with a very, very nice framework, I found Java lacking some of the C++ features I had come to rely on (particularly multiple inheritance), not to mention the bad taste the abomination called "AWT" (the original ~~Agonizing~~ Abstract Windowing Toolkit that came with Java) left in my mouth.
