Getting into RxJava, someone said "it's just like a monad" - and, what??
func programming: can be high-level, abstract, etc
imperative: a sequence of statements that change state. 
  actions, specific control flow. *how* to do something.
declarative: *what* you want to do (maybe a little fluffy, but _chill_)
  HTML: there's no _how_! just a description of structure.
  SQL: describe what you want, receive it.

Doze

Background execution limit in Oreo
Oreo stops background services when the app goes into the background
Also can't start a background service from the background
Users = happy, less battery drain!
No more global CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE broadcast!!!!
This user is VERY happy...
But because of the change in how global broadcasts work, certain custom Intents can stop working
need to use a custom permission to get around this - see slides (TBD)
