Did you know you cannot use Java to develop software for use in nuclear power applications?

Well, they're not going to stop you, but they say that it doesn't live up to the associated safety standards and that you really shouldn't use it. And if you do use it, they won't be responsible if it screws up and kills a bunch of people.

(I actually read some of those license agreements once.)
