JDK 15
I haven't been this excited about Java since JDK 1.2.<p>Especially Project Loom. Virtual threads will be a game changer. A return to original Java's rallying cry of programmer productivity.<p>There's always been steady progress, sure. But it seems like Oracle is much less risk adverse. Or maybe the governance changed. Or maybe Sun, IBM, other had been holding back a lot of progress. I'd love to know the backstories. To better inform future efforts.<p>Regardless, Java today is amazing and rapidly getting better.
