Java: Getting old. OSS friendly. Most popular language. Will probably still be kicking in 20 years. C#: Better designed. Better IDE. Chained to M$. Claims to be OSS friendly, but we all know it's a trap. Will be dead in 10 years.
Java: Oracle has it now, and their lawyers failed to wring a huge settlement out of Google with it. If Oracle can't lawyer their customers to death with it, that leaves it's fate to be determined. Possibly circling the drain in 20 years. C#: 17 years old, still in development. Built on DotNet, which also powers Microsoft's system automation language: Powershell, which is also still in development, both of which are on GitHub no less. I suspect these have more legs then many might think.
