   Rudeness is often just a mask for something else. Look behind the rudeness and you find frustration and a need to be heard. Emotion is a bit like a pendulum, one side is anger, the other is happiness, and in the middle is neutral. If you ju

   I follow the same arc. I grew up lugging network cables around to setup LAN parties for Warcraft and Command and Conquer. Then went to college and setup a Halflife server that our entire dorm got into. Even the non-gamers got into it creati

   Although there are lots of contributors to OpenJDK (which is where Java SE is built), Oracle continues to show up and do a large part of the work. This work is then used to build many distributions, including Oracle's JDK's. So th

   Part of the vision of pattern matching is aggregation and destructuring [1]. This is just exploratory but may be what you're thinking about? [1] https://github.com/openjdk/amber-docs/blob/master/site

   Thanks Suyash! External contributions, or at least a more formalized system for feedback, is in the planning stages already.

   See my parallel comment on this philosophy. Also, it's likely we'll never see "really big stuff" in a single release as the 6-month cadence has made possible incremental changes to a larger vision. Case in point, see Pro

    The teams working on the JDK think about their work in 6-month release cycles, not LTS cycles. What's ready to go in when the train leaves the station, goes in, what's not, waits another 6 months. And this applies across the board

    Thanks for the Dev.java mention. Our team is excited to launch the site. We focused on minimal design (similar to Inside.java) and heavy on content, mostly learning material to start. More to come soon. Feedback here is welcome!

    That is true, the cost of mistakes for a platform used so broadly is high which is why folks working on the platform don't rush things that aren't ready or don't feel natural yet. That said, the faster release cadence has don

    A big benefit of the 6-month release cadence (since Java 10) is that if your favorite feature gets pushed, the next release is just around the corner.

    Up until 10, releases were feature-driven, meaning, based around the delivery of something when it was done like Generics in 5, Lambdas in 8, modularity system in 9, etc. With 10 and on, Java is now a time-based release cadence, every 6 mon

    And by telling I think you mean that over time Java has very thoughtfully evolved in a way that respects backwards compatibility, or that once a feature is in the language it'll very likely stay there for the next 25 years. Yes, innova

    Each of the projects (Loom, Panama, Valhalla, Amber, etc.) are in different stages and are intended to deliver features over time. Project Loom itself is not a single deliverable. As mentioned, you can get an early-access build of most of t

    We hope not, and if it is, it's a misunderstanding. Java is freer and more open than it ever has been. There are many downstream builds under open source licenses, including one from Oracle at http://jdk.java.net

    Things are innovating faster than ever, but, the trick is always to address the challenges of both today and tomorrow, while staying true to compatibility and stability. Check out Brian's talk on Stewardship: https://www.you

    This is not a delay in the filing date (yet, although many predict it's coming). This is a 90-day interest-free grace period for paying owed taxes.
