Hear me out:
Mixing OOP and functional code to abstract the shit out of everything making 5k loc in around 500 loc in java. You can do magic using this trick.
Functional programming in Java is kind of an afterthought and it shows. That's one of the reasons why Scala was created!
The FP in Java is still leagues better than whatever the C++ committee cooked up.
they didnt cook it, they air fryed it to a crisp burn
Just let C++ die already, and stop pretending it's a reasonable thing to compare other languages with.
If you can't do it in C, you are better in Java, Python, Haskell, whatever.
