Instances of Non-Capturing Lambdas

This technical blog post investigates how the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) handles and reuses instances of non-capturing lambda expressions. It presents a detailed example involving a functional interface (ImmediateFuture), a factory pattern, and demonstrates a subtle behavioral quirk when lambdas are stored in collections like a HashSet. The article is based on exploring JVM internals and includes links to a GitHub repository for code examples.
