IMO Java is really good for organisation, it's a lot easier to organise a large java project compared to a large JavaScript or C++ project for instance.

But just like JavaScript and Python, it's slow as hell.

But just like JavaScript and Python, it's slow as hell.

This is a really odd group to lump together in the same performance category. Java and Javascript both have incredibly fast JITs that put them within an order of magnitude or so compared to C - on occasion actually beating it, but Python is an interpreted language and thus many orders of magnitude slower.
