This isn’t really about Java. Yes, it’s the most popular language in the world, but I still dislike bytecode languages. The irony that I’m an expert PHP developer does not apply, as it’s an interpreted language which is a different level. Besides, I’m also an experienced x86 assembler programmer too.

The main issue in this story from CNet is once again Oracle aren’t showing sufficient care in their handling of open source projects. They’ve already dumped OpenOffice, yet they’re suing Google for a technology they can’t even get right themselves. Oh dear.

The general uncertainty and issues in modern development makes me glad I chose PHP.
