Hi, A while back I commented on the suggestion to deal with an annoyance of casting in a stream [1]. I brought an argument that was used in project Amber for a similar case. Like Tagir Valeev, I also see the filter-then-map pattern in various projects I work on.
I would like to know if this issue can be re-evaluated. Thanks, Nir [1] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8198620
