Hi Bryson,
I've just recently started reading the book and as of today, I can no longer download both JDK 8 and 9.
The https://jdk.java.net/8/ URL is telling me to...
JDK 8 Releases
The JDK 8 Early Access Program has concluded. Current versions of JDK 8 can be found on www.oracle.com/javadownload
...which led me to the Java SE 8u221 JDK download link. Am I right to assume that this will work fine for the JDK 8 requirements of your book?
Which then leads me to the JDK 9 download, It tells me that JDK 9 has been superseded.
JDK 9 Releases
JDK 9 has been superseded. Please visit jdk.java.net for the current version.
Older releases, which do not include the most up to date security vulnerability fixes and are no longer recommended for use in production, remain available in the OpenJDK Archive.
Should I use another version instead of JDK 9? If yes, there are three to choose from -- JDK 11, JDK 12 or JDK 13. Which of these three is best suited to replace the JDK 9 requirements in your book?
I know that I'm probably way too late in starting your book -- I got it through the Humble Book Bundle: Learn You Some Code by No Starch Press on Sept 30, 2018 -- and only recently saw it again in my library and decided to give it a try so I was wondering if you had any feedback regarding this.
Thanks.
