Is it me or does the below sound condescending?
Trying new features is a good way to broaden your skill set, and if there is something you strongly dislike about the usability of a feature you can even provide feedback to the JDK developers.
To me it reads like: Try our experimental features because that will make you a better (rounded | paid) developer, and if you really really want you may even provide feedback.
- jlillesand 7y agoNo offense, but that's probably you. Even if I try to read that as condescending, I have a hard time doing it. I read that as: trying new stuff in code generally makes you a better programmer. And when you test stuff that's still in an experimental phase, the language designers are probably still open to feedback from the broader public.
