That's my problem with these type of "modern" languages. I'm old school, back when you had access to, or had to create, everything, so hiding it all under multiple layers is just time consuming. I'm doing a huge Angular project right now. Trying to find out why/how certain things work is over half my battles. Types and punctuation can be omitted, and symbols (and their order) are very important. Trying to backtrack a variable to its origin, only to find out that it just materialized out of thin air goes against my grain. Part of this is just the syntax of a new language, but the rest feels like deciphering hieroglyphics!

If you do develop Android apps, keep in mind that new features that become available for the Android system, are likely to be available only on Kotlin projects, not Java. This is already true for Jetpack Compose that improves developing user interfaces. It is only available for Kotlin.

I know nothing about Kotlin, but you confirmed my distaste for Java.  I guess sometimes it really is the programming language, not the programmer.

Going from VB (any version) and C# to Java was a horrible, horrible experience for me. Kotlin looks like a winner to me, and it eliminates Google's vulnerability to another Oracle lawsuit over Java.

You could do this, too.
Refactor later if you really need getters and setters.
I have done this with types that are just used for conversion/repackaging. Build once, send somewhere else.
public class Person {
public String firstName;
public String lastName;
public Person(String firstName, String lastName) {
this.firstName = firstName;
this.lastName = lastName;
}
}

Thanks for rubbing in how 💩 Android-Java is to program in. For what were reasonable considerations 2.5 years ago (mostly compressed customer timelines and ramp time needed for a new language) the project I'm on decided to stick with the older language.
"No it's not my favorite language either, but everyone on the team already knows it, and it's not anywhere close to Objective-C levels of awfulness either."
When our first increment of money was supposed to deliver a working app in 3 months; a month of low output while learning a new platform wasn't something I could support either. When it actually took 2 years before a second pot of money was released to us... 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I woke up invisible this morning.
Unfortunately, the doctor couldn't see me right now.

My doctor scribbled graffiti all over town. I know it was him - the writing was illegible.

Nice to see you back making jokes after a dark time (which most probably make you think for a longer time).
All the best anyway.

Thanks, I'm not one to wallow in misery 
I've been making (slightly darker) jokes, just not on here

What did the Nurse say the invisible man?
I'm sorry the Doctor can't see you.

That's what I thought Derek but it's not cryptic

It lasted an hour and a half - that's cryptic enough for me!
And you know that punctuation is only there to mislead ...
