Have you (like me 🫣) misunderstood the concept of a backwards-write in Compose? Well we have some new content on this topic! What is a backwards write? Its when state is modified in a later phase or downstream scope than where it was originally read from.

My fav new feature in the latest Android release is "Connected Displays".🖥️ You are able to plug in your phone to a big screen, and benefit from all the extra space that the screen provides 🤯 This means you should *really* ensure your app works on diff screen sizes.

I'm seeing more and more instances of "we don't look at compiler output, so when LLMs generate code, we don't need to look at the output" LLMs are not compilers. With a compiler, you provide a highly detailed spec and know exactly what you are getting.
