    Is THIS the End of the Google Play Monopoly?

    A significant judgment from the Google vs. Epic Games lawsuit has led to major changes in the Android ecosystem. Google is now required to allow third-party app stores to be installed from within Google Play and to provide them with access to the complete catalog of apps. Additionally, developers are no longer forced to use Google Play's billing system, meaning Google can no longer charge a 30% commission on in-app purchases. Developers can also link to alternative payment methods and app stores from within their Google Play listings. This decision could potentially ease the hurdles for Android developers and reduce app costs for consumers, though Google plans to appeal the ruling.

    Rust is secretly taking over chip development

    Nvidia, AMD, Google, and Microsoft are collaboratively working on Project Calyptra, which aims to secure computer chips using Rust-based implementations of the root of trust component. Root of trust ensures that low-level boot code is authentic and secure, critical for preventing hardware-level malware attacks. Current implementations suffer from fragmentation, lack of transparency, and scalability issues. Rust's usage in this project promises enhanced security and maintainability. Calyptra is expected to be integrated into Google and Microsoft silicon by 2024, with AMD following by 2026. The trend of using Rust is also growing in the automotive industry, with notable adoption by Volvo and others for embedded systems.
