Kotlin Coroutine Confidence: misleading image or text (p 20ish)

The text "“ What we do have is that suspension-point icon next to awaitResponse,”
presumes we didn’t have those icons in the execute version “astronomy/v1/src/main/kotlin/com/example/astronomy/AstronomyApplication.kt”
but they appear in the same places in that example (which actually confused me but I assumed execute was a suspend method).

(I hopy you don’t mind these nitpicks. I figure bc it’s early beta, you want these.)

In Beta 3.0 I’m updating the text in this part of the chapter to make it much clearer that the icons I’m talking about are in the IDE, not in the book itself.

I might also add a note to explain how the highlight icons in the book (➤) are used—still thinking about that one.

Thanks for raising the issue!

Perhaps just a few words: such as “In the below example, the >> point out the important/changed lines.” “If you load the above code into IntelliJ, you’ll see that there are now suspend points (~>) where there weren’t in the prior iteration.”

Where Next?
