Bring on the programming language jihadists

Simon says

What I call “programming languages beginning with the letter P” (like PHP, Perl, or Python) tend to be favoured by developers who have an incomplete understanding of the issues surrounding building great software. … Languages like PHP help people build mediocre software fast. Java helps people build great software fast.

Umm. Right. But you don’t get it. If Java is great, then I prefer to remain mediocre. I’m in good company.
