I am starting to like Java

Building abstraction upon abstraction, design pattern upon design pattern, isn't as much of a chore as it felt before.

I feel like I am building a large structure to solve a simple problem, like a rube goldberg machine, and I can revel in the complexity.

There is a certain zen-like quality in chaining seemingly unrelated design patterns together to create a crazy behemoth that still completes the task assigned.

I suppose doing Enterprise™ Java™ Development™ for a living won't be so bad, after all...

you're counting the cold startup time for the JVM, which everyone knows is slow but amortized over 2000 hours of uptime 100 extra ms is not that much
