Re: lambdas - if one-off code is being rewritten so many times maybe it's small enough that it doesn't warrant it's own function? I've never run into that issue

Re: lambdas - if one-off code is being rewritten so many times maybe it's small enough that it doesn't warrant it's own function? I've never run into that issue and love to use lambdas where possible -- in fact the use of streams api has frequently been a source of simplifying existing boilerplate loop-type code. Any time lambda code seems to be repetitive and large enough to warrant refactoring that's usually what happens -> throw it into a method and call from the lambda (or just use method reference syntax if possible).
