For some reason IntelliJ started to DEFAULT to Java 1.5 on all my new projects, to fix that you go to:

IntelliJ IDEA > Preferences... > search Compiler > Java Compiler


  • select what default you want
  • adjust using drop-down your existing projects

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
