When you install Java it says "3 billion devices run java"
Well I'm not sure how many of those devices actually respond12 -
He's stop writing Java because he thinks Java is inelegant. He write PHP instead.
Am I still on earth? 🤔28 -
So I've got a friend learning Java, using Eclipse.
I walk in one day and see him restarting his computer. I make nothing of it. Few minutes later, he's restarting again.
I jokingly say "Windows update?"
He responds with the straightest face ever: "No, compiling code."
Apparently he thought you needed to restart the computer before compiling.
Not sure if I should be mortified or laughing my ass off.5 -
My new year's resolution:
- Learn more Java
- Build a web server with Java
- Make a 3D game with no frameworks in Java
- Make a simple Android app with java
- Try JavaOS
- Tell people I know Java13 -
java - - version
Unrecognized operation: - - version
FUCK!!!
java - version
java version "1.x...."
EVERY FUCKING TIME!!!
Why Java, WHY?!?!? 😭
Every other tool uses - - version ❤️10 -
What?!?
There is an ^= operator in Java for booleans. I have been programming in Java for 4 years now and never knew this. Like b ^= true will flip b.
Mind blown; this is the greatest thing ever14 -
After a long time in .NET and JavaScript, I have returned to Java today. I was quite happy about it for a few minutes!3

After heck a lot of hours of debugging my Java code which looked all right, found out my mistake was just using == instead of equals()

I was once at my uncle's 40th birthday party and bored to hell, so he gave me a book that was supposed to be "Python for kids". I started reading it and soon fell in love with programming.
Since then I've often learned new programming languages by reading books or lately mostly the internet.
My books here should be in chronological order:

Some 40 years old guy on the bus talking with his younger colleague: "If you learn Java, you know Javascript. Javascript is just more compact Java."18

Thanks java! FAILURE :java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: OutOfMemoryError thrown while trying to throw OutOfMemoryError; no stack trace available5

The biggest annoyance in Java for me is the absence of "real" properties. Writing getters and setters everywhere is ugly, you are generating them anyways.7
-
"I decided to write the core software for my Time Machine in Java. It's Date API is so error free and easy to use."
As the legend goes, the scientist is trapped in another dimension between Timezones.

Went in to the therapist today. Their impression is I'm likely okay. Wait until I show them the cluster fuck that is Java Enterprise. 🙃11

Why don't people like Java? With only a year of AP comp sci for experience, I don't know enough about it to say I do or don't like it. But it's widely used, and is an official language of Android. Are the people hating on Java just people that don't use it? Or is there something about Java that people just genuinely despise?36

Java
It's my favorite language because I started learning programming in Java when I was in school.
The most annoying thing in Java is I don't feel like writing System.out.println each time.12 -
I was assigned my first ever huge software project in college (a complex board game made in only pure java) and was assigned a group by my professor. Since I'm doing well in the class, I was given kids who want me to teach them everything (from GitHub to simple oop) on top of programming most of the system because they can't or don't want to. So to make things easier I gave out some relatively simple and specific jobs in GitHub using the issues system that apparently nobody reads. Thankfully one person decided to take initiative and start their feature but one commit later the entire system crashed and everything is broken FML can't wait to program this entire thing by myself.

Java is kind of like teenage sex--everyone is always talking about it, but in reality they don't even know what they're talking about.

This whole week I’ve been writing Java (for the first time) and I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s a horrible language, written by horrible people, for the purpose of making other people’s lives horrible.
Fuck Java 🙂10 -
-Yeah sure, I'll adjust to java pretty quickly. Have been working with C# for years.
Narrator- But little did he know that how much Java differs.9 -
Once I didn't knew anything about coding or development.
Someone suggested me to start with Java.
Still looking for that Mada-foker.5 -
CS prof comes over and asks me to explain my final project and to look over my code etc. Shes generally rude and starts going "mhm, yeah, ok" without even looking up and then asks to test my output.
Well fuck. My program works except for a couple shitty bugs that I’d just found out about two minutes ago. One of them was that it would crash every time the user simply pressed enter when asked for input. So here I am, hoping to fuck that doesn’t happen or else there goes 10% from this mark. It happens (obviously w/ my luck). She goes "oh" and continues to write shit down while I sit there cringing internally. Then with a quick fake ass "thank you" she walks away and I slowly turn back in my chair to my monitors and to my sad sad code.
The next day, I find out the result. 95%. And it still crashes to this day whoops ¯\_(ツ)_/¯1 -
Currently working on a simple, front-end UI project that is actually a bet with a friend and that means a whole load of CSS 💀 Anyways, decided that an element didn’t look so good and decided to fuck around with its positioning. I proceed to change one value and I kid you not, the whole fucking screen distorts and all the other elements end up somewhere else. I obviously smash the Ctrl-Z right away and had to take a good look at everything in my code. Now I just resort to "border: 1px solid red;" around something if its acting fishy 🤷🏻♀️14

Back in the late 90's when I got started in my career - had a boss that didn't known the difference between Java and JavaScript. I made the mistake of trying to explain the difference. If you can keep the boss in the dark and get away with it - do it. Ignorance is bliss.1
-
Wtf java.. You can't just fucking make java paid.. This is not acceptable assholes. Although I don't use java now for many good reasons. But I always had respect for it. And I used to use it.

Cheers to those Java developers who think they will be richer than PHP developers because Java has a more complex syntax.11
-
Anybody remember when we actually spent time writing code instead of debugging the tools? Specially the gazillion of crap that's out there for fucking Java shit?14
-
anyone else code randomly in their mind even when they’re not in front of a monitor or just doing random shit in their everyday life. like for example the other day i was writing something down on a (completely) blank piece of paper and started quite a bit away from the edges and in my mind i was like "just set the padding to 30px" or yesterday when i almost slept in and immediately thought "oh shit, forgot to call setMorningAlarm()". whenever i’m out and about and come across something cool i try to figure out how it must work code-wise in my head. and if it’s not that, it’s always usually something to do with my own problems i’m having in my program - usually the solution pops up in the most random moments like when i’m getting ready to leave or sitting in class.10

New on HS Robotics team (we went to worlds last year —> we’re good). I come from France.
The lead programmer say that we are gonna stop coding the robot in Java and start C++ this year, so naturally I’m excited!
Lead programmer just told us we’re actually staying with Java... fuck.4 -
Started doing Java because i thought it had much better libraries than C++ .Now after doing it , still not able to decide whether to stick with Fucking Java or with that Fucking C++ LOL.35

Saying Java is good because it works on every operating system, is like saying anal sex is good, because it works with every gender!10
-
why the hate on java? ok, i'm only studying applied computer sciences for a year now, we mainly saw java /javascript and i like them. personally i worked with python, c, c#, php, swift too but i still don't see the problem with java4

coded a java program in eclipse throws back error .
Know that program is correct.
Created a new project file copy pasted the code, wolaa.. executed.

I can already taste the tears of java devs.

To all fellow Java devs out there. Remember the Java life: "We code hard in the cubicle"

Me: *looking through some ways to implement something in a current project*
Also me to my brother: I might pick up some PHP, you know, learn Laravel, it could help
My brother from just outside the room: I’m gonna pretend I didn’t hear that
:| Needless to say, I picked a different approach after some more digging lol11 -
The best part is the satisfaction you get when you see the thing you've worked on for a long time being used and making people happy.

I feel like more than half of the time i spend coding Java is actually writting system.out.println().
I mean come on ! Who got time for that ?!5 -
Am at a Hackathon and am being judged for coding in Java, and I have been relegated to developing the front end. I feel judged.6
-
I thought I was decent at Java until I saw it in action over an internship this summer... is it always so complicated or do I have more to learn?2
-
I have just learned java language. Can anyone tell me some small projects that will help me as a beginner?10
-
Hadn't touched Java for more than a year, had to refresh it back. Probably learnxinyminutes is enough?2
-
When some colleague ask for help in a project that you're supposed to know everything but you really don't (damn multi threading in Java )4
-
What is the use of Java nowadays besides Android? I rarely see Desktop apps written in Java and backends are developed more efficientl with django, node.js ,etc... just think about it setting up spring boot and all the warnings and errors...4
-
there’s definitely way more than 3 but here would be my top reasons:
- love being able to create something from scratch and see it come to life on the screen in front of me
- teaches you how to think logically/figure out the most effective way to accomplish a task
- hope to make a difference in the world, no matter what its magnitude -
Why does java have so many nonsensical limitations? Why? Why can't we have multiple heritage? Why can't we have friend classes? Why can't we make static abstract methods? Oracle, PLEASE.9
-
Screw Java. Spent the last two days in this language and it's driving me to fits. Tried making a generic function. Java can't seem to easily handle generic typed arrays. Java threw a fit when I converted an array function to an integer function. Java has all this stupid boilerplate code that you put on every stupid thing.
Programming in Java is about as pleasurable as running face first into a brick wall.2 -
So, a year ago we started to learn java at school. Since I have started learning java I hated it. I don't know why, but I absolutely don't like java. Do you guys agree? I want to like java, but I have no reasons why, anyone has some tips?9
-
Who says Java is platform independent? Here I can't easily move a project to different device on same platform.3
-
I've just tried those streams of Java 8. And I can't understand, how on Earth I didn't try them before. They're magnificent.
Hovewer I have some doubts about using them in production. I think no one else will be able to understand what code with streams do.2 -
There was a rare footage of aliens using java to fly their ufo, well then i guess thats why android was built on top of java

Java is the worst shit ever
This works:
int a = 4;
a *= 4.0;
This doesnt:
int a = 4 * 4.0;
:)))))))))))))
Makes sense12 -
Is it wrong that I hate Java?
I tried learning it before, couldn't get myself to, I thought there was something wrong with me, maybe im not open to learning new languages
Then I got introduced to F#, Loved it! Even moved portions of pet projects to it
Looked at Java again
Still hate it.
Advice?2 -
I have coded in Java from like two years but just now out of nowhere a thought came to my mind.
Why do we need to use "java SomeClass" to run code of SomeClass and why not "java SomeClass.class" ? What difference does it make? 🤔 -
Boss asked me to find out good beginner java course for the new n00b colleagues. Help me out please.7
-
Will you pay for JAVA? This is really funny now that .NET is open source and free. We went the other way around.

Idk why but whenever I seem to code anything in Java, my hands stumble all over my keyboard and I end up back spacing more than writing ActUAL code
-
“Data structures”... More like “i hate java so much and i am thinking of dropping outta college and live in a cave where i never have to see a monitor ever again.” Am i right?3
-
So yeah I just had Ubuntu show me two errors directly after startup, then claiming that there is a programming error in aptdaemon and then IntelliJ crashing because of a read-only FS.
After rebooting my VM im faced with a BusyBox prompt saying my disk is corrupted. Fuck VMWare. This is not the first time the disk in my VM got corrupted. -
Since I have learned Java I was taught that Java only passes by value. But my Uni Professor discusses that Java is passed by reference for object and string. I am really confused right now and need some advice.20
-
I'm not going to pickup Java no matters what. I'm moving from tech giant to advertising field which I can avoid Java. I like to develop things quick and see the impacts straight away, that can be done using php, node.js. Not Java. Life is too short for Java.3
-
Going to a crash course Java event tonight. Not sure how enthusiastic I should be based on some of your rants 🤔2
-
Question for java masters, can you please show me the java mastering degrees
Example : Java, Java Gui, Java Jdbc .....
Thank you7 -
Hey, I'm new to java. I was just practicing and found that don't know how to use Date to get an input. Any easy way? Searched almost for an hour. Help!1
