Really weird to compare to Python and C/++ when Java's closest competitors are definitely C# and Kotlin. If you were to rewrite that list comparing Kotlin and Java it would literally be nothing in favor of Java and all the same benefits for Kotlin plus more safety features. Honestly the whole article seemed forced, like @balder1993 said below. The part about java having 'functional programming' is also a laugh. It's all based on interfaces, and you have to use terminal operations to do anything on a stream, it's terrible design.

The whole article seems a bit forced with many topics that are present in most other languages too. I don’t think “Faster release cycle” is one reason Java got where it is today.
- Write once, run everywhere (WORA)
There's something fishy about that acronym.
