Many things which take just 5 minutes in languages like Python, Groovy, or JavaScript can take more than 30 minutes in Java due to its verbosity. This is such a bullshit. Variable declaration is a very small part of a class/method. Let's say a 5% of the total. If not declaring the type removes 50% of the declaration, the total gain is about 2%. Nothing to fuss about!
That's true and that's why Java is not for writing scripts or quick utilities but at the same time, I have found managing a large and super large project in Java much easier than let's say Python or JavaScript. Though I am not a Python or JavaScript expert, I have just happened to work on that, but that's what I have felt during my slightly limited exposure.
