What enrages European assholes so much is the fact that Americans just don't give a fuck or care about the fact they hate us. In American eyes French, German, Dutch and English pussies are mere insects we could crush whenever we wanted to. Their hatred grows from a deep sense of envy and fear of our power. So just get over it European jerkoffs, you are insignificant and not even worthy of Americans scorn. You pukes are just gutless cowards. I am tired of America saving you goddamn pigs.
Its a neat exercise to get people intersted in OOP and Java.
Too bad that good OOP and Java are mutually exclusive.
No matter how good you try to code it in Java, a similar c++ version will run SO MUCH faster... And so when you're doing AI (which tends to test the border of what's computationally possible), I walk away with a dirty feeling if I try to do, let's say a SAT solver in Java.

Why bother then. They both suck: the products of hype & bullshit to make buzzword-spewing consultants rich and coorporations slaves to them.
