Clickbait ! ClickBAIT !!!!!
Let me remind you that bloggers have been declaring Java dead for over a decade now. Java still goes strong and is the undisputed king of Enterprise coding no other language can even remotely touch it, mainly because of its huge powerful library made for big businesses. Pharo cannot compete with Java, it does not have the resources to, right now the only true competitor to java is C# and even C# though backed by Micro$oft , still it lags very much behind it in terms of popularity. Let me also remind you that Java is the language that mutilated the then undisputed king of of programming languages C++ stealing away tons of its coders. Probably the biggest migration of coders ever.
Only fools underestimate Java.
Java is big, Java is ugly, Java is powerful and Java is here to stay for a long, long time.
My advice to Pharo, keep doing what you know best, helping lone coders and small teams compete with large companies in terms of productivity. Dont compete, innovate.
