In long term, both Java and C++ are declining, with Java falling faster due to its competitions.
But, who cares. 容易学,好找工是正经。
For new comers, maybe with a major in English or Chinese, or for a 中等智力水平又懒惰的人, like myself, it is like dreaming to get an offer in the highly competetive C++ job market. Even if we can get an offer (thanks GOD), to keep up with those smart C++ programmers? PURE Torture!!
So, for us, by which I mean 中等智力水平又懒惰的人, we'd better make up our mind, by looking at the job market, do a quick search on Monster.ca, don't ever be fooled by this kind of b.s. index. Learn our skill well, true, CPU, algorithms, all good stuff, but please, whatever can land us a job, go for it. Technically superior stuff can never feed your family. COBOL, old, low tech, a torture for the smart C++ programmers? Actually It is not so bad comparing to C++ in terms of getting us an offer.
