Today is my first day at Skylight building an Android-based calendar, photo frame, and more!
"An update on Android KTX"?!?
Uh, oh. We all know what that means…
In Android 17, apps targeting SDK 37 or higher will receive a new implementation of MessageQueue where the implementation is lock-free.

I'm looking for new employment opportunities. Tips, leads, intros, or whatever are welcome.
Sounds a bit different than I remember... Still good though!

Just in time for the 20th anniversary Blu-ray release of I Am Legend.
Not sure why everyone makes such a big deal of traveling with kids. You just need the right equipment.
The Retrofit 2 converter for kotlinx.serialization has shed its experimental annotations and gone 1.0!
https://github.com/JakeWharton/retrofit2-kotlinx-serialization-converter/releases/tag/1.0.0
This requires a bump to Kotlin 1.8.10 and kotlinx.serialization 1.5.0 where the APIs we relied upon have now been stabilized. Enjoy!
Next steps: move the converter into the Retrofit repo as a proper first-party offering.
