Looks like I’m not worthy to be testing @github’s new repo design. Guess I’ll just have to wait then.

Another friendly customer experience from the staff at the Braehead Apple Store.

Planned Basic Income For All in Finland

In its final version, the basic income would replace other benefits people currently receive, and would therefore be rather high, as indicated by Kela’s Research Department Director Olli Kangas. It is considered that all Finnish citizens would be paid an untaxed benefit sum free of charge by the government, 800 euros a month in the final version, 550 euros monthly in the model’s pilot phase.

It will be very interesting to follow if this is a success.

Catching up with some podcasts on @OvercastFM this morning. Great to so many of the features in the iOS app also in the web app.

Read a few articles about people being able to switch to iPad Pro from their current laptop. Think it might be a while before I can do that.

I’m using an MBP just now but I reckon I could move down to a new MacBook. iPad Pro as a main dev machine might be a stretch though.
