C# has aged better but I feel like Java 8 approaching ANSI C level solid tools. If only Swing wasn't so ugly. They should poach Raymond Chen to make Java 8 Remastered I like his blog posts. There's probably a DOS joke in there. Also they should just use the JavaFX namespace so I don't have to change my code and I want the lawyer here to laugh too.

      Sure, where can I download the Kotlin Virtual Machine, with a standard library implemented in Kotlin?

      If you feel like replying with ART, there are plenty of .java files in AOSP.
