The worst code i've ever seen....

Amen to that! Sadly Birmingham Uni still insists on teaching it though!?!
In both my Bachelor's and Master's programs, we were forced to use it...

It's slow... it chews memory like a beast.... it boosts productivity like a monkey eating a dog......... http://www.java.com/en/[^]... If you want your application to be slow and not very good, use Java.
...and all the java crowd say the same thing about .NET. Move on, nothing to see.

I'd like to see any of them justify it though... Ps. Nice website it's very useful, any chance of a button that when clicked stops articles being edited (or just making articles user editable once they have been edited)?

OK. What about you? Don't you feel a bit fanatic?

Let's see you justify the contrary...

.net slower than java or java slower than .net.... I can justify java slower than .net with about 10 minutes of coding (and 30mins of java tools downloads). Please don't ask me too though, really don't want the hassel of downloading java stuff.

But of course, they are wrong and we are right. Why? Well, because we are, well.... us.

Java has many adnvantages over .NET and disadvantages as well - one of the most problematic (in my opinion) being not supporting value types, everything is object. But, you state that it chews lot of memory and is slow; having seen your latest articles do you have the courage to say that WPF and especially your code runs faster and with less memory than Java Swing GUI for example? P.S. I write in .NET also.
Thanks, Georgi

Good point, no I don't. However what I do know is when it has been optimised it will be. I would imagine it probably already is though. One thing I do know is it would have taken me much longer to get the performance I have using Java.

At NJIT they teach java now. Luckily, when i had to take those programming classes, it was all c++. I have reason to be happy actually... it allowed me to more or less understand the class-less C language... which, when i got to my microprocessor class where we did alot of 68k assemebly... that i was able to see the logical connection from which the C language is derived... because Assembly is just a lower level obvioussly-class-less C where you program with just functions, ...well they call em subroutines... but ya... When i was in high-school i had a class that did both java and c++... it was in that class that my hatred of Java indirectly started... You see we used the free compiler and wrote all our code in notepad. But anyone that ever programmed in c# in visual studio knows... that the Ide is what really makes coding fun... all that intelli-sense and code designer and the form designer and the addins... Ohh the addins! :P... anyways... Debugging in notepad is a bitch... you gotta count the lines... Overall that's why c++ was more fun (cause we had that old visual studio... called vs6 or something... but the debugger was a godsend... double click the error and it goes to the line with the error... wow... and the error messages actually made sense over what devcpp gave you (which i used for my homework at that time... untill i learned about something called kazaa :D) Anyways when i was a sophmore or something i was like... i gotta learn a language that's fun and fast... for personal projects... i was thinking visual basic might be a good idea... i already knew that java was a complete pos that was slow and the forms looked like complete dog crap...well that was visual studio 2003 installed and i saw in the loading screen the icon for J# and C#... well first i thought... well i know some java, maybe i'd give it another try in J#... then i looked at a blank Form project and at the using statements and crap... and was like... ya maybe i'll just use visual basic.net.... And then i tried c#... at first i was completely utterly confused mind you... but the syntax i think was just nice... when i create my first object like with the "new" keyword and how all int objects could be easily and painlessly ".ToString"'d... well that was when i was in love :P Wow i still remember the first time i learned of the property syntax... before that i was like... how the hell do you "communicate with a class".... Or when i was writting a silly program to be as a companion to a game called "Raven Shield" that would work wi
