I'm using Room on Android and I've replaced AsyncTask with coroutines. It seems to work but I'm wondering if there is a better way than `GlobalScope.launch { dao.insert(note) }` for simple background work where I don't expect a result.

Also, would `thread { dao.insert(note) }` be an appropriate alternative?

MInd the resources if you launch too many async tasks (network is slow, but user clicks fast). `thread` would eat your memory very fast, coroutines are much cheaper, but you might still consider limiting concurrency
