Some people do. Read the first comment there:

"I recall how one day I walked out of work and my hands hurt so much
from typing Java code, because Java is so needlessly verbose."


If the complexity of the task is so that it is possible to type
code all day, then Java is very likely not the optimal
language. Java was not intended for such trivial tasks.

The average productivity for a Java programmer are
probably in the 10-50 lines per day range as average.

Software development is about thinking not about
typing.

PS: The article is rather funny. Statements like "Zope, it turns out,
     had already solved most of the problems I had with my homegrown
     application server" gives a good impression of why this person
     did not like Java.
