Episode 72. A very deep dive on Var, and unmodifiable collections with Stuart Marks (@stuartmarks) himself!

We went to one of the best sources to learn what's happening with Var and Java 10, @stuartmarks! Also, what has been (and is being deprecated) on Java 10, and 11. And little inside perspective of having a new java version every six months!

Included is a the "convConvenience Factory Methods for Collections" List.of, Set.of, Map.of that @stuartmarks did for Java 9! (and his new contributions for Java 10). And a interesting trick of the non-deterministic order of unmodifiable sets! (A Stuart Marks special!)

So come and listen to this episode which contains great tips and tricks directly from one of the contributors to the Java Programming Language API!
