There's no good reason why people distributing apps outside the Play Store should need to provide their personal data to Google.
This is just taking Android into the horrible world of dev accounts and notarization that Apple enforces.

AI doesn’t eliminate technical debt. It actually multiplies it, faster than ever.
The best devs today aren’t the ones who can write the most clever code, but the ones who know which code to trust, which abstraction to keep, and which AI suggestion to ignore 🧵

Make sense and I have never thought about that possibility.
LLMs hallucinating nonexistent software packages with plausible names leads to a new malware vulnerability: "slopsquatting."
LLMs can't stop making up software dependencies and sabotaging everything

I have been using Room for KMP for some time now and raised some issues. It's such a pleasure that Android libraries are moving to KMP and getting stable! Love it, keep up the amazing work.
Room 2.7.0 is out today with Kotlin Multiplatform support! It now supports Android, iOS, JVM (Desktop), native Mac, and native Linux.
Plus Kotlin code gen becomes the default for KSP and KSP2 is fully supported.

Just got an early access invite to @jetbrains.com's Junie. It's so interesting to play around with the next step into our future already. Junie easily helps to kickstart some tasks/projects but you still need a lot of deeper knowledge to empower Junie to get where you want it to go. Looking forward

Junie is such a huge help for quickly getting an implementation of e.g. an API client. For a video, I was implementing smart light control with MCP, and I was able to delegate the REST client entirely to our agent. Fewer mechanical tasks, more focus on the things that matter 🚀 youtu.be/jwevCa96Z4Q
