Well.. I don't understand how you can read a confused and muddled article by someone who doesn't want to know the difference between JavaTM and one of its notable choices in the many dimensions of language choices and not wish to be a little more enlightened as to the difference between hiring an OOP monkey or a VMware jockey to smash some bits about.. The article is like a poster child for taking an hour to learn what your profession is about.

Respectfully, it's not clear to me what you're saying. You're clearly displeased with both the author of the article and with myself, but beyond that, I'm not sure what your thesis is.

We give features of a profession terms so we can refer to them independently and make reasonable discussions that don't confuse people as to which traits we think something that is neither Java nor Python (and so need not match either of them on every dimension) should have.

For example, I hate Java because of OOP, but strong typing can make a lot of bad in a language tolerable. Does the writer of the article agree with me? They don't seem able to understand whether they do.
