Not a rant, but just curious, comment which you like more, Java, or C++. (And your favorite editor/IDE for the hell of it)

Java + vim ; i know its awefull

C++ and i mostly use C9.io... i hate visual studio because reasons but it one of the few platforms that supports c++14
(and dont get me started on codeblocks... thats just bad UI design)

C++

Java + IntelliJ(Jetbrains is great.)

Edit to this: I've been programming in C++ for quite some time. I have very little experience in Java, so I prefer C++. Visual Studio community does not run very well for me but I finally got Atom set up so I can compile and run my C++ from there. Very simple little IDE for starters; looks good too!

@TheCrashman the IDE is irrelevant for C++ as to each his own and most are SDK independant, but its about the compiler and what it supports.

Java, all day long. I'm HEAVILY biased though, as I'm an Android programmer.

Android Studio and IntelliJ IDEA are the tools of choice, depending upon what I'm building.
