How many JVM programmers here? - Ippytraxx - 17-10-2013
So how many people here program in any of the JVM languages? Java, Scala, Groovy, Clojure, Jython, what have you.

I sometimes mutter about with jruby.

Personally I really dig JavaFX which is a HUGE upgrade from the old days of AWT/Swing. Just absolutely amazing what they have done with it. Also concurrency in Java IMO is hands down better than in any other language. Super easy to mulithread applications without clobbering it all.

I've done some Clojure a while back. Nothing serious though. I might get back into it, lisp is beautiful.

I've been using Java at work for 3.5 years now. In my opinion one of the best things about Java is that the JDK contains the fully commented source of the standard library.
While you can just use what works it's always interesting to see the inner workings :P

I've been using Java for a few years to learn game programming. I'm thinking about switching to C due to the problems that Java has but it's the language I know best. If I end up not switching then I'll learn LWJGL (I already know JSFML). Otherwise I'll learn SDL.

i know java. but almost never use it... now javascript, that's another story all together.

Clojure here.

I'm learning Java, and I really enjoy it. Java is awesome.
