"Hey, emdeesee, why do you go on about Common Lisp. Have you ever tried Clojure, a modern Lisp dialect?"
@emdeesee also, this only regards Java 8. Oracle will want people to update to newer Java versions and they want to enforce it aggressively.
@phoe Ah, interesting. It hadn't occurred to me this is a method of coercing updates.
@emdeesee to be far, 10.0.1 is out
@rnelson Still belongs to Oracle.
@emdeesee Yup. I like a lot of Clojure's language features, but being shackled to the JVM is... not great.
