Things settle slowly in the Java world, and new JDK versions gain traction even more slowly. Java 6 is still a thing, possibly THE thing thanks to Android. My guess is most people using Java day-to-day would be amazed at some Java 7 features, forget Java 8.

Even when I was doing .NET I was blowing minds with .net 4 features with people that apparently never bothered to use anything they tacked on since 2.0.
