Universal basic income for artists in Ireland: theconversation.com/irelands-bas...

What a great policy! 👏🏻

Via: goodnews.eu/en/
Ireland’s basic income scheme for artists points at how governments could help sectors in crisis
It’s one of the first to make it out of the pilot stage and to offer a subsistence level payment.

Thanks, great topic! Added to my list. Meanwhile: yes, they work, got a full schedule for weeks after initial announcement, mixture of colleagues I knew already and new people, mostly referrals. Mostly career advice and some startup advice. After the summer holidays, I need to promote again.

Just started my own YouTube channel! 🎉

Feeling… a bit nervous, tbh. 😬

Anyway: What topics would you like to see me talk about on video?

Same goes for IDEs and other 1st party apps.

Not sure yet another browser with ”it has our AI in it!” is going to help much.

People tend to marry their tools, and tool habits are hard to change.

I prefer @anthropic.com‘s approach to integrate with whatever tools their users prefer through MCPs, Skills, CLI, plugins or OS hooks.

So I got an email with a CSV of a conference agenda, dropped it into Claude on my mobile and asked it to figure out which sessions I should go to. A bit of back and forth and now I have my schedule neatly in Google Calendar (once we figured out the UTC/MESZ/MEZ timezone wintertime mess 🙄).

Worried about your job, the economy, or politics?

The good news is: you’ve survived 100% of your worst days already! This one won’t be different.

Here’s what helped me move from worry to action during tough times:

Daily bunny no.3115 is getting this vessel shipshape
Two bunnies are on a small, rocky island. On the island is a giant ship-in-a-bottle, which they have entered via a crack at the base of the bottle. One bunny looks off the bow of the ship optimistically. It is a dusky evening.

It is becoming more and more difficult to rent an EV in Germany (Munich). Most model options and availability have all but vanished from major car rental companies. WTF?
Did they over-invest 3-4 years ago, then pulled the plug (sic) too early?

Just added a neat @bsky.app feed widget to my blog’s sidebar, showing my last 5 updates. Thanks to @anthropic.com’s Claude Code, it was built in an hour from idea to deployment, it’s leaner than a canned widget, and it integrates perfectly with the rest of my blog’s stack.

♻️ adrianco: I don’t have time or patience to do development work myself any more. This is fun because new working things appear quickly without the hassle. So I’m building things because I can, and because I don’t have to convince someone else to fund them or wait a long… https://mastodon.social/@a…

In case you missed it, the new Chill Study Beats mix is up.

Now with a Pomodoro timer built in (25/5).

Also available on YouTube, for when “I’ll start after this song” becomes the whole study plan.

Today for dinner: home-made ”Yakitori Don“, though I cheated a bit by using ready-made Teriyaki Sauce 😅.
A blue-grey ceramic bowl on a woven gold placemat contains white rice topped with stir-fried chicken pieces, diced carrots, and fresh green lettuce leaves. A glass of water and burgundy napkin with stainless steel fork complete the table setting on a wooden surface.

Jeremy Utley: “You can’t require what you won’t do.”

I like his idea of an “AI Sherpa” for execs, but I like the idea of execs doing real learning better. When it comes to learning, opportunity costs are overrated.
