Oh for crying out loud Ivan! You challanged my assertion that Java is the "number one
language" asking for the source of the stats and I give them to you but you just go on
whining. Please take your trolling somewhere else. Get A LIFE. and as to C++?
> Huge file sizes
I wonder what compiler, and linking options are you using? I do not have a problem
with my executables being "huge" at all. Then again, I don't use frameworks that are
inefficeint hogs. Sounds like the programmer.
> 100% guaranteed memory leaks
Sounds like the programmer. My code doesn't have memory leaks! Then again, I know
how to write disciplined code, something that quick and dirty programmers can't
understand. I also know how to use tools that track memory leaks.
And lo The Heavenly Father doth rest. And whilst He rest, His hand accidentally
brushed the keyboard and somehow keyed in the following code.
Troller ivan = new Troller();
ivan.setIrrational(true);
ivan.setOverEmotional(true);
ivan.setLife(null);
ivan.setClue(null);
ivan.setThinkingStyle(Psychosis.THINKING_STYLE_BLACK_AND_WHITE);
ivan.setDailyRoutine(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
while(ivan.awake()) {
Forum target = web.surfForUnsuspectingVictims();
if(target != null) {
Iterator i = target.getMessages();
while(i.hasNext()) {
ForumPosting intelligentPosting = (Posting) i.next();
intelligentPosting.read();
ForumPostingReplyFactory replyFactory =
ivan.getPsychoticReponseGenerator();
Reply reply = replyFactory.createResponse();
while(reply.makesSense()) {
reply.rant();
reply.bitch();
reply.whine();
reply.moan();
reply.saySomethingIrrational();
}
target.post(reply);
ivan.setIQ(ivan.getIQ() - 1);
}
}
}
ivan.slapSelf(Slap.HARD);
throw new IdiotTrollerException();
}
});
ivan.run();

Ok let's settle this argument simple.
Tonight, I'll ask my Christian Science friend to talk to Jesus, and ask him the
following:
"Jesus, if EL really DOES decrease performance significantly, and should not be used
at all, please give me absolutely NO sign. However, if EL is a great thing and should
be used by everyone, please give me a sign".
I'll report to you in the morning and let you know what was God's opinion on that.
