🌴 James Gosling, Founder Of Java Is Retiring
The Java creator retires, leaving community greatful for his technological and life wisdom he shared in a humble way over his lifetime career
I don’t have to introduce James Gosling, as he is one of the founders of todays technology world.
He created Java programming language and led it’s design to a point where it’s in TOP 3 programming languages worldwide with industries that solely rely on it’s cross platform, memory safe design.
It wasn’t a straight forward path, but pivoting through the fast changing world paid out eventually. You can read more about how Java was born from my previous article.
Now, Java ia developed by the community that proposes new features and developers who implement them into Java runtimes. So James can retire knowing that the future ahead Java is bright.
James is 69 years young, has two children and lives in Redwood City, California, USA.
On retirement he wants to focus on a long list of fun projects he always wanted to try out.
