Why are we using Java again?
Paul Týma · Communications of the ACM · 1998
The practical answer you'll receive when asking anyone why they're programming in Java is based in the ultimate dream of platform-independence.Write an application in one place and it can run on any machine under any operating system (at least that's the idea).It certainly is a powerful statement, implying that we can lay down our architecture and operating system "bigotries" and allow performance to guide our computer purchases.No longer would one choose a certain system over another because "it has more applications," since all applications would run everywhere.This is not something I'd want to hear if I owned a company that had a monopoly on the CPU or operating system market.11100011100000011110000001111111000010101 01010101010101010101010100000111110101010 Why are we using
