I think this was a fair statement up until a couple years ago, but right now I am lamenting the actual progress in C# and CLR technology.

I think the progress on Java and the JVM has been nothing but impressive. Not only compared to the baseline to where things were 10/15 years ago, but simply how much stuff comes out each year and how well-thought it all is.

Frankly, it's an inspiration for my private and professional projects.
