| Samsung could emerge as the big winner from Huawei's miserable week (GOOG, INTC)
|
| • Huawei is Samsung's biggest competitor in the worldwide smartphone market. But without Google's Android, it could be difficult for Huawei to expand outside of China. • This could make Samsung's position at the top of the smartphone market all the more certain, leaving Apple as the only meaningful threat to its dominance. • If Huawei's foldable smartphone, the Mate X, does not run on Google's Android, it could make the device noticeably less appealing — therefore leaving an opportunity for Samsung to emerge as a leader in the foldable phone market despite its rocky Galaxy Fold launch. • Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories. The biggest winner in the US government's battle with China's Huawei could turn out to be Samsung's smartphones.

| Here's why companies like Google, Square, and Atlassian are sprinting to use Kotlin, the fastest-growing programming language according to GitHub
|
| • Kotlin has become the fastest-growing programming language,according to GitHub, and it's increasingly being used by companies like Google, Square, Pinterest, Pivotal, Capital One, and Atlassian. • Kotlin was developed in 2010 by JetBrains, a software-tools company, to take away some of the "pain points" of Java, like "null pointer exceptions," which frequently cause Java apps to crash. • Business Insider spoke with various companies about how they decided to use Kotlin and why it's so loved by Android developers. When Valeriy Ovechkin, a Square software engineer, started on the team for Square's restaurant app, Caviar, it was written completely in Java. Java, one of the most widely used programming languages, was created by Sun Microsystems, the company later acquired by Oracle, and commonly used to write databases and Android apps.
