I am super excited to speak at @kotlinconf.com for the first time! 🎉🎉🎉

Join us in Munich - my lightning talk "Run, Kotlin, Run!" will be about the many ways you can run Kotlin - be it the regular ones, JS, Native, WebAssembly, on to some more exotic ones - the more, the merrier!

🔥HOT OFF THE PRESS: Why the energy transition is disruptive, non-linear, hard to predict and often faster than expected.

Our paper in Nature Reviews Clean Technology shows how feedback loops create virtuous and vicious cycles that can accelerate or block change. 🧵

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Seit Jahren gewährt die CDU dem „Wirtschaftsrat der CDU“ privilegierten Zugang in den Parteivorstand, ein Verstoß gegen das Parteiengesetz. Wir fordern Parteichef Merz auf, dem Rechtsbruch ein Ende zu setzen. Jetzt unterschreiben → /8 www.lobbycontrol.de/lobbyismus-u...

Apparently there are still some copies of the fun code() Magazine, which suddenly popped up at FOSDEM!
What a surprise - these might be last copies of its kind, so if you get one you can consider yourself *really* lucky!

Enjoy #FOSDEM everyone!
It's #FOSDEM time!

And we have a Kotlin Community stand. Come say hi if you're around!

Tim Cook’s call for “deescalation” is meaningless without specifying which side he’s calling upon to change course, and there’s no weaker sauce than the weak sauce of “both sides”.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

PSA: Starting Android Gradle Plugin 9.0 (or the latest stable version of R8): R8 will automatically optimize all Intrinsics.check* APIs in Kotlin automatically !

This should greatly help improve app performance (especially Compose given the large Kotlin library API surface).
