Yes, slide 48 is not fair, as you can't get the answer from looking at it.
The answer is Unicode character, \u001d, which ia a soft hyphen (slide 49).
This works fine for me in IntelliJ.

That would be great, except...

It doesn't work for me.

The keyboard shortcut does nothing, and as you can see, no coloured dot in the menu.

I'm running Sonoma 14.6 and Notes v4.11

I'll be presenting "30 Years of Java: How Did We Get Here" on Wednesday at 2pm at @jfokus.se.
Come along and share some (probably a lot) of nostalgia.
Here's my collection of JavaOne badges. I think we got a bit carried away with ribbons in 2017 (@sharatchander.bsky.social) 😀

Continuing the trip down #Java memory lane...
Here's a selection of Dukes I found and a copy of Java Workshop from 1997 (version 2.0 Dev1).
I had to set the clock back to 1997 on my VirtualBox Windows XP to make it run! 😂

I think I can say I've adapted to being a Canadian.
Here's me last night working the BBQ in the snow.
It's -7C, and I didn't even feel the need to wear a jacket!

It was a beautiful day in Prague yesterday, and Kaleo were outstanding. I would honestly say they were one of the best bands I've seen live.

I'm not always convinced by the alternatives that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social offers me 🤔
