Why are all the Java programs so fragile?

Because they have a lot of class, but no strong foundation!

Memory leaks. GC in Java used to be terrible. Not sure if this is still the case.

you mean javascript right?

Rude

You never had autocorrect mess with you writing JavaScript then.

I also assume he meant javascript. I've never encountered a fragile Java program, in the testing wilds.

Maybe he's looking at stuff on GitHub, or something, but that's almost all garbage code.

yeah, i use a java app every day, intellij IDE... the only thing in it that seems to be fragile is the symbol database, the rest of the app is pretty much rock solid for years now

what i find annoying about java though is that it often has issues with versioning and almost always each app has to have it's own JRE version to work properly, which pretty much nullifies the entire proposal of "write once run anywhere" altogether

they got Boost disease i think

it's not for nothing that Go chose static or minimally dynamic binaries

Because Java.

because of "OO" paradigms it's users prefer. They fail to manage state correctly.

For the same reason why every program is fragile

Too much abstraction. If you build from scratch on the core it can be faster and safer than straight C.

coffee beans aren’t the strongest…

The answer is in the question

The Oracle problem is bigger for them

Because they don't have an Option.

Because he likes null pois exception

Compared to?
