Hi Folks,
I have now played with java for a while and I can't get very comfortable
with it. I don't really /dis/like, but it just hasn't "clicked" yet.
Maybe that is because I come from the Python world, which is (almost)
completely different in approach. Specifically I find Java to be overly
paranoid sometimes (what with interfaces, typing declarations, etc ...).
I see their value for optimization, but they hurt my brain because I'm
just used to the freedom. I'm not writing this as a flame; maybe some
Python-folks here can understand me.
What I'd like now is some sort of "Java Philosophy" text. Something like
a "spiritual guide" to Java, that would convey the right mindset for it.
A quick googling found me nothing that seemed consentient, most was
rather personal views. I've read the Java-is-not-Python thing, but that
didn't cut it (felt lame).
Any ideas? I'd love to hear them.
thx
