The real scary part is how many of them are using Java 8 and older.

[–] DudeDudenson@lemmings.world 23 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I work for one of the unicorns of my country. 3/4 of the apps I maintain only work on java 8.

Legacy code op

Is this a boilerplate comment?

[–] lemmyman@lemmy.world 18 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Boilerplate comment for boilerplate meme

[–] s_s@lemm.ee 9 points 9 months ago

Sounds like an inheritance problem.

[–] topinambour_rex@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

It supports one of the best creative coding language, processing.

Here's another one: Companies depend on Adobe.

[–] onlinepersona@programming.dev 16 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Governments depend on Microsoft.

[–] bAZtARd@feddit.de 11 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Governments? Try critical infrastructure...

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago

That is truly terrifying.

[–] Aiyub@feddit.de 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Usually these things are "or less". I see looking again that it wasn't actually said.

[–] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 3 points 9 months ago

That and: Companies are stuck with Adobe

[–] wols@lemm.ee 11 points 9 months ago

That number is like 20 years old.

Today it's around 60 billion.

Spooky

[–] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

More like terrifying

[–] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works -4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

True

I have to program in Java at my work and I absolutely hate it

[–] kogasa@programming.dev 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

What version of Java? 11 up is tolerable, modern Java is nice. Still see 8 in the wild though.

[–] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Java 20 mostly

[–] kogasa@programming.dev 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I'm surprised, I would love to work in Java 20. Do you have any particular pain points with it? Or is it just that you'd rather be using something else?

[–] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Yeah. I just don't like Java

C# is better

[–] nogrub@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

we programm sort algorithms in java right now and i can't really complain but i'm just a newbie

[–] Immersive_Matthew@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

I really do love some of the blunt and often accurate but not always replies from ChatGPT. I legit like it’s personality if that is what we can call it. Can be down right sassy at times.
