#2Nice set of features, that the majority of Android users will only get in a few years.
Maybe we should start making bets if Android Oreo be able to beat Nougat and be above 13.5% next year this time around.

#3Glad we are making it more secure. On a side note I love that we now have https://googleblog.blogspot.com/index.html http://blog.google and https://android-developers.googleblog.com/ and https://googleblog.blogspot.com/ (which redirects to blog.google without index.html because it appears to be the new site) which is slightly weird.

#4"Android 8.0 makes KASLR available in Android kernels 4.4 and newer."
And yet on my pixel with Android 8.0, I am only using 3.18.52. Who actually ships Android with kernel 4.x?

You probably know this but because of project Treble for future versions after Android Oreo will probably be adopted more quickly. It is unlikely for Oreo to do much better then Nougat then from what I have read.

Only one of those works for me (the top one), which amusingly redirects to blog.google which you missed :)

Try it now it appears index.html isn't optional which frankly is even more confusing.

Top one works now (by which I mean doesn't redirect to what I think is the actual Google blog now...) :)
