One of the places I learned most about #coroutines in #Kotlin was reading the source code for the sequence() builder—which isn't part of the coroutines library at all. Turns out asynchronous programming is just one of many ways to use the suspend keyword!

Woha! A page has asked me to “solve a captcha” by instructing me to do what’s on the screenshot… and also has put what’s in the second screenshot in my clipboard. i.e. open the Windows Run dialog, paste and execute a script to install malware. Most users will fall into this one.

Today is my last day at Google. I joined as an intern almost 18 years ago, and it still feels like it was yesterday. I'm incredibly grateful that I got to work with so many amazing and talented folks, but I'm also excited to try something new. First step: a few months of travel and photography :)
