GeekOut 2015: CompletableFuture

The talk by Tomasz Nurkiewicz about CompletableFuture was rated the highest at GeekOut this year. This is really interesting API that appeared in Java 8

A Future that may be explicitly completed (setting its value and status), and may be used as a CompletionStage, supporting dependent functions and actions that trigger upon its completion.
