In Part 1 of an In Depth Look of Cross Operating System Development, Bryan goes over his experience with cross development. Discusses the major advantages to developing under Linux and some downsides. -LINK- Discount just for you: http://bit.ly/2MC3gO
Modern (Python, Ruby) interpreted languages run just as fast, are highly portable, and work well with many cross-platform toolkits. Their syntax allows for faster coding, and are easier to understand, especially to newcomers coming into a project.
I'll admit that on the desktop it has definitely not kept up in the flash and shininess department. But that doesn't make it obsolete, just utilitarian. It is a very mature and stable technology with very widespread adoption server-side in enterprises.
I'm just suprised that there was no mention of it all considering its "write once-run everywhere" mantra.
Java is also something different, actually it comes with its own "operating environment" which makes it usually pretty memory intensive.
