I dunno how much I'd trust a Google speech about api design. Few of their API follow the same rules and most are horrendous to work with. It's the wildwest over there.

I presume you are a bigger API design expert than Joshua Bloch. Please point us to your talk/insights.

Because public speech's make one an expert? How many Google api have you consumed, I'm guessing few, or you'd know what I'm talking about.

A Josh Bloch talk is not a "Google speech"

My bad, I misread, it was given at Google. Guess their engineers didn't listen. :x

Actually he was employed by Google when he gave that speech at Google.... So I'd call it a Google speech.
