The H1B process is slow, but pretty much deterministic within a period of few months (every year). On the other hands, the EB1/2/3 and various O visa is very indeterministic (you won't know what happen, for how long), especia

As someone who went through the process of Triplebyte (which ended up not working out because of my visa situation), I have nothing but good to say about them. The interview questions were great: straight on point and no trickery that tries

Java functions are still not first class. The headline feature of Java 8 was lambda function, which arguably isn't first class either (they are implemented as instances of object subtype, so essentially still is object nonetheless)
