the entire computer security industry would go bankrupt overnight.
C-niggers think they are so clever for messing with memory pointers in 2019 when that kind of drudgery has been completely automated for decades. it's like thinking you're manly for building a skyscraper by moving bricks with your bare hands instead of using a crane.

Pro-Java trolling aside, it does blow my mind when reading security bulletins about yet another buffer overflow in
$current_year
. Most of the industry still thinks that C is the only suitable language for systems programming, and if you ship insecure code it's just because your programmers aren't good enough.
But if seasoned C hackers are producing bug-ridden code time after time, maybe it's the tools that are not good enough.

>>2 Even worse, most of these buffer overflows would have been caught if people would learn to use their tools properly. Turn on almost all of the compiler warnings, use static analyzers, sanitizers and fuzzers in testing. Assert all of your preconditions and postconditions.

Java is too slow. Imagine waiting 370ms instead pf 355ms for a http request.

>>4 Performance isn't Java's issue, it's memory usage. JVM uses just too much
>it's like thinking you're manly for building a skyscraper by moving bricks with your bare hands instead of using a crane. C is like laying bricks by hand to build a skyscraper; Java is like using a crane to haphazardly pile heaps of bricks into something vaguely resembling one.

C is like designing bricks and then designing brick-laying automations and then ordering these automatons to build something. Java is creating an organization to procure elaborate contracts to build brick-laying machines and implied bureaucracy overseeing the machines along with tech support and PR teams.

>>16 curry niggers are stupid, but at least they know they are stupid so they don't arrogantly try to manage memory by hand.
>>12 JVM is widely used in industry. But its usage is unevenly distributed. There are still many applications where security is crucial, but using something as heavyweight as JVM is not an option.
To fill those niches we need something with comparable performance and runtime requirements as C, but safer and stricter.
Ada is a dead language. D seems to have hit a wall. Rust: maybe, if the designers don't fuck it up. Rust also needs more commercial supporters, and a well known `anchor' project that helps it gain recognition. Using Rust to build bits and pieces of Firefox is not enough.

>>19 Swift has a better chance of filling that niche than Rust. Rust is C for nodevs who guzzle soy. They don't know shit about security because they are niggers.
>>25 You're right they probably want to control the grid centrally. Even then security can be solved with networks and private lines. Only the outer node on the network has to be secured. It shields what's behind.

Write everything in Go, it's like D but not Autistic
Only the outer node on the network has to be secured.

I just want to thank you for posting this thread, I’ve always felt alone and like I was a freak because of that fact I’m retarded and now I am nearly in tears because I feel like I’m not alone and this thread has helped me see that!! Thank you so much!!
java is bestlang. everyone knows this. that's why its #1 in TIOBE Index for 50th straight year.

>>32 java is extremely useful. if you have to only be good at one lang/environment, then it's java all the way down. you can write firmware for SIM cards and Minecraft and ransomware in it.
the people who hate on java are the people you generally want to avoid as much as possible: webdevs unixbeards anime avatar trannies FPfags

I work in security and used to do a lot with Android shit in previous work. now I'm auditing a Java codebase with a lot of SOAP shit. let me tell you: Java does not solve shit when it comes to security. no buffer overflows doesn't mean no vulns
