I've dropped off about 20 books from my bookshelf at free and public libraries in the neighborhood. Just dropped off the last 2 today. I think I will periodically clean out my bookshelf this way. I hope people enjoy the books I donated as much as I did ✨

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.
And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.
One way of seeing agentic coding (machine in the driver's seat) is as a continuation of the erosion of the mental model of the system, where on one end of the spectrum we have mob programming (continuous strong consistency/alignment of a shared mental model) and on the other agentic coding

Sobre el tema del alcohol. Mucha gente utiliza el alcohol como vía de escape porque estamos ante una droga legalizada. Evidentemente, estas personas necesitan ayuda no solo para escapar del alcohol sino para solucionar el problema original que les llevó a caer en el alcohol.

BONUS TIP: Doing hands-on projects with my son is another great way to enhance the language competency.
These last months we've been building a bartop arcade machine.
I explain it in my newsletter above.
Years later, this is what I'm sharing with other families via my free email course.

Raising multilingual children is hard. My goal is to ease the burden with shared experiences.
See you there!
Because, children will use the language if it's useful for them.
Not because we say so.
So, we have to make it useful.
You can't say 'Because I say so' as it will generate an instant aversion to the language.
I repeat him that it's a way to connect to my side of the family, with his cousins and his uncles and aunts.
It's a way to discover other kind of stories, legends and history.
The benefit of him being older is that you can now reason with him and offer solutions.
Still, there is a key issue of 'why should I speak this language?'
And the answer isn't a simple one.
Actually, one night he confessed to me that he's sometimes reluctant to answer in Bosnian because he's not sure about some of the words.
I told him that the intention is more important than accuracy and that he can always ask me about the words.
So, I have switched to rephrasing his question in Bosnian and answering him.
What wasn't as successful as I hoped?
First, there are many moments where he doesn't want to put the effort of answering me in Bosnian. In the past, I used the method of not answering him until he does.
Now, this doesn't work when he's 8 years old.
