Or maybe Java is like Skynet. It's everywhere and controls tons of things, if it turned evil we would be screwed.

Except it is incredibly vulnerable. So, its like that well-meaning but easily confused office worker, who thinks they are doing good work, but really being used to destroy their company? IDK, bad analogy.

Until you get to industry where the old guard is too set in its ways...

So basically "Sharron" from Accounting could accidentally destroy SkyNet by opening the wrong email? Man... John Connor has been going about this all wrong!

The issue with Oracle is that they only care about short term profit and ignore the long term.

that's also an issue with their employment..... as someone who interviewed with them and have friends who work there.

I'll still keep C++, and self-learn on C# and some others.

The only thing better than a bad analogy is someone intentionally misinterpreting said bad analogy in a hilarious way. Thanks man! Made me laugh so hard!
