  //    it would just add an edge such that if done() observed non-null, then it would also
  //    definitely observe all earlier writes, but we still have no guarantee that done() would see
  //    the initial write (just stronger guarantees if it does).

    value has always been nullable but it wasn't declared properly.
 *  Fix: Reverse suppression of connect exceptions. When both a call and its retry fail, we now
    throw the initial exception which is most likely to be actionable.
 *  Fix: Retain interrupted state when throwing `InterruptedIOException`. A single interrupt should
    now be sufficient to break out an in-flight OkHttp call.

*   `tf.data`

    * `tf.data` now has an `autotune_options.initial_parallelism` option to
      control the initial parallelism setting used by autotune before the data
      pipeline has started running. The default is 16. A lower value reduces
      initial memory usage, while a higher value improves startup time.
