When embracing Java 8 we walk down the yellow brick road to the wizard of lambdas. That road usually starts from the fear and terror of learning their syntax until finally getting to understand them and opening our minds to the fruitful fields of functional programming. But this road eventually reaches a final stage: the lambda abuse.

To master the lambdas art means to know when to use them and when not to not damage your brain and, most importantly, other Java developers’. Keep your code readable and maintainable, avoid becoming a lambda addict!
