https://www.reddit.com/r/java/ in the page header states: "No programming help, no learning Java", and on the right hand side of the page, states: "NO programming help, NO learning Java related questions"

Reddit leaves something to be desired, both here and generally. However, taking the time to post something to reddit and expecting a useful answer might be considered a foolish exercise.

StackOverflow answered my question well enough in the follow-up comments. The conclusion is that the warnings don't even match the required behavior. In other words, I will stick with Java 8 since modern scum totally ruined later versions of Java.

i coded a few java applications and a few applets.

as a c language programmer with thirty years of experience, i found the language to be promising but i also found it to be riddled with problems.

I thought you blocked me?

Anyway, what problems did you find with Java?

hey, reality check.. why would anybody want to block anybody? it makes no sense at all.. even people that i find to be really offensive, i would never block them, because i enjoy reading their bullshit even tho i do think that i cant agree with them..

no offense was intended, i see that you are really fond of your java... i am a c coder since 1991 and have been coding since 1983.. java has some very nice capabilities, but i dont think it is a language that is going to hang for much longer.. but what do i know? i dont know shit..

i only hope you are having a good time.
