In plain words

Java 7 Features Backported to Android is a development tool that enables Android developers to use Java 7 functionality on devices running Android 2.2 and later. The project provides compatibility layers and backported features, allowing developers to leverage newer Java language capabilities in older Android environments. It is hosted on GitHub as an open-source project for developers who want to access Java 7 and 8 features while maintaining support for legacy Android versions.

    https://www.manning.com/books/data-oriented-programming-in-j... This book is a distillation of everything I’ve learned about what effective development looks like in Java (so far!). It's about how to organize programs around data "as plain data" and the surprisingly benefits that emerge when we do. Programs that are built around the data they manage tend to be simpler, smaller, and significantly easier understand. Java has changed radically over the last several years. It has picked up all kinds of new language features which support data oriented programming (records,…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
