    What I like about java is it’s consistency. It’s not a great language but it’s a solid tool. It’s no trying to do anything brave, just steadily moves in the right direction.

    Python is the exact opposite. There are at least 3 competing tools for everything, multiple ways to install packages, python 3 is not backwards compatible. Just setting up the environment is needlessly painful. It’s not a bad language but a terrible tool.
