Time to pause the world and collect some Java pointers

Java 20 is Out

Nothing too radical in java 20. Here is a great summary by @nipafx on the updates. Some of the most impressive is that some previews aim to finialize for 21 which Oracle has also announced is the next LTS

But have you seen that quite a few of them may (!) finalize in #Java21? The JEP (drafts) for these features aim to finalize them:

* virtual threads

* pattern matching in switch

* record patterns

* generational ZGC

@nipafax

Happy #Java20 release day, everybody! Get the freshest JDK right here:
jdk.java.net/20/
Let's have a quick look at how the preview features progressed this release (after we looked over all the small and not-so-small additions to 20 last week 👇🏾).
