To quote Gerry Rafferty (Night Owl):
Quote: Night comes down and finds you alone
In a space and time of your own
Lost in dreams in a world full of shadows
Down the street the neon light shines
Offering refuge and hope to the blind
You stumble in with no thought of tomorrow
Yes, I get a little lonely when the sun gets low
And I end up looking for somewhere to go
Yes, I should know better but I can't say no
Oh no, no, no
No, no, no, no

That's why I went back to work on Wednesday - so I can ease back into it, starting with a 3-day work week. Had I waited until Monday, going from doing nothing for a few weeks, to a full 5-day work week right from the get-go would've been brutal.
I still found this week to be rather long, even with just 3 days.

I find my self fairly late in my career switching primary languages. I've spent 20 years working with C# & everything Microsoft, and now I'm at predominantly Java place.
I want a good detailed reference book. I don't need beginner concept stuff, but I'd like lots of technical details. I'd like to build my knowledge on the subtleties that may trip me up where I may be making assumptions based on C# that are not correct in Java. Effective Java seems to be frequently recommended, but it's not been updated since 2017.
Can anyone recommend a good Java reference book that's reasonably current.

Yes, I found that book (Nutshell) most pleasant. Nice, short examples in the right places.

+5 for your first reference.
When I read your message, I turned to my bookshelf, thinking "O'Reilly Nutshells are good value."
Among the 6 on the top shelf was Java (5th ed in my case).
I was doing some serious Java development in those days (2005ish).
Although I haven't opened it in years, it has survived at least two savage culls of my library.

About 20 years old, but this was a book by the same David Flanagan, (one of co-authors of your first book), which I had studied at that time.
Java Examples in a Nutshell 3e https://amzn.eu/d/0DUBbTW
Not sure why he hasn't updated it since then.

Thank you. These both look great. And both cover up to Java 17.
The complete reference looks like it's got a new edition due to be published in March so I might get 'in a nutshell' for now, and then the new version of the complete reference when it's out if I feel like I still want more

New glasses?

If that's the exact same file you want to look at, that is just a low resolution image (297x170). No tool will make it "sharper". Otherwise, most decent image processing software will have filters for sharpening an image. Me, I'm using a very old Paint Shop Pro (not free) and Gimp (free).

Nope, glasses aren't going to help there. Electron microscope maybe.
