New Can somebody help me translate from Ashton to English?
Is there software for that?

The only thing that I get is roughly "OO is just about the only game in town, so live with it or get out of the biz."

Programming was nice, easy, smooth, intuitive, etc. before OO convoluted everything into oblivion and made simple things into complex protocol chains with no ancor anywhere in sight and hard-to-Xray RAM-shct.

Itsa left-handed world now.

I could probably live with something like Smalltalk, but JAVA??? Somebody couldn't make a language/system less suited for they way I think even if they took my webpages and made the negative in the form of a language.

New There's someone who sorta agrees with you.
He thinks Java does a lot of things wrong and badly, so he created a Java spin-off of a sorts called [link|http://icon.cs.unlv.edu/godiva/|Godiva].

New Odd.
I found [link|http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:M1JFdCXqWVw:icon.cs.unlv.edu/godiva/+%22Godiva%22+Java&hl=en|a copy of the original page] in Google's cache. If you like what you see, perhaps you could email Clinton Jeffery. It looks like deletion of the Godiva stuff may be accidental.

Yup.

And statistics show we southpaws are smarter than you righties anyway, so you better get adjusted to the idea of leaving the more intellectually challenging jobs to us.

I'm sure you can find a rewarding -- and far more fitting of your particular "talents" -- career in burger-flipping or garbage disposal or something.
