The New Java Best Practices

Java evolves. And so must our Best Practices. Because it is not enough to simply learn the new features, we must learn how to use them well. In this session I'll examine how Java has moved on since 8, and propose how we should adapt, including records vs beans, pattern matching, optional vs null, and data-oriented programming. Be warned - this will be an opinionated session!
