John Cummins- Minister of State at the Department of Housing for Local Government and Planning.

Detached modular homes built in a back garden will be exempt from planning permission under new government proposals and today, these exemptions are available for public consultation.Will it help to solve the housing crisis?Joining guest host Mandy Johnston to discuss this is Minister of State for Planning and the person who is leading on exempted developments, John Cummins, Fine Gael TD for Waterford.

How would you feel about living in your parents' back garden? With rents still rising, the Government is now looking at making modular homes exempt from planning permission to tackle the housing crisis, but would they work? Is this yet another ineffective short-term measure?Joining guest host Mandy Johnston to discuss is Conservationist and Architect Róisín Murphy.

A four-week public consultation begins today on proposed planning permission exemptions aimed at easing the housing crisis. The changes would allow certain small-scale projects—like attic conversions and garden cabins—without formal approval, giving homeowners more flexibility and expanding housing options.Do you think this planning permission should be scrapped?Joining Andrea to discuss is Town Planner Derek Whyte, Peter Finn AKA Pete the Builder and listeners.

On The Tonight Show with Kieran Cuddihy:The government seeks to overhaul planning laws in order to boost housing supply, but should garden cabins really be exempt? Plus, Europe capitulates to Trump over tariffs, but what does the trade deal mean for budget planning and Irish jobs? And should the Irish hospitality sector still get its tax cut?

In the last lesson, I talked about the four types of UX resources that can help you scale your influence across the organization. This time, we're going to zero in on one of the most powerful tools at your disposal: the design system.If you want to move from being an implementer to a UX leader, someone who empowers others to create better experiences, a good design system is your best ally. It makes user-centered design easier for everyone else. That, in turn, frees you up to focus on the bigger picture.Let's talk about why that matters and what makes a design system truly useful.Why Design Systems Matter (Even if You Think You've Got One)I'm not just talking about a Figma file with some buttons and colors. I mean a real design system. One that's robust, well-documented, and tightly integrated with your development process.Because, people across your organization need to visualize, prototype, and test ideas quickly. If they're constantly reinventing layouts or relying on you to build everything, you become the bottleneck. A good design system short-circuits that by giving them the building blocks to create user-friendly interfaces without needing to be UX experts.That helps in several ways:Speed: Reusable components make it faster to go from idea to mockupConsistency: Interfaces follow the same design logic, reducing confusion and frictionScalability: Teams don't need to wait on you to build every screenBuilt-in best practice: Accessibility and UI standards are baked inBut for any of that to work, you've got to go beyond just handing over a Figma file.What Makes a Design System Effective?It's easy to underestimate what goes into a good design system. But if you want others to use it correctly and confidently, it needs to tick a few critical boxes.Clear DocumentationThink brand guidelines, but for components. Your team needs to know how and when to use each item. That includes the "dos and don'ts" and examples of what not to do. Misusing components is common. Like placing white text on pale backgrounds or combining elements in awkward ways. A few screenshots can save a lot of confusion.Developer-Friendly IntegrationDesign systems shouldn't just work for designers. Developers need to be able to take what they see in Figma and translate it into code. That means making component names and logic consistent between tools. Ideally, it also includes code snippets they can copy directly.Reusable Code ComponentsIf you've got a design system in Figma but no matching code components in your front-end library, you're only halfway there. Work with engineering to make sure each design element has a reusable, implementable counterpart in code.Modular and MaintainableYour system needs to grow with your organization. Whether you're rebranding or adding new features, your design system should make updates easier, not harder. Modular components help with that and make it easier to iterate as standards evolve.Governance and Ongoing OwnershipThis isn't a "set and forget" resource. A design system needs love and maintenance. Set up lightweight processes for reviewing and updating it regularly. That might mean assigning someone ownership or scheduling a quarterly design system review.You Don't Need to Build It All at OnceA solid design system is a powerful investment. But it doesn't need to be perfect or comprehensive from day one. Start small. Pick a few high-use components like buttons, form fields, and modals, and document those well. Build from there as your needs and capacity allow.The important part is getting something usable into people's hands as early as possible.Your Action StepStart by taking inventory. What components or styles are you re-creating over and over again? Could you package those into a starter design system for others to use?Next time, we'll talk about the tools you can provide that make research, testing, and prototyping much easier for your colleagues.

He discusses how his early fascination with crypto in 2017, coupled with insights from building Deliveroo's marketplace algorithms, exposed the flaws of centralized networks and fueled Rhinestone's mission to create user-friendly, self-sovereign tools that rival Web2 simplicity. Kurt dives into Rhinestone's platform for developers to build and monetize smart account modules, the challenges of improving Web3 UX, and his vision for smart accounts as the dominant interface for users, AI agents, and blockchain-integrated systems in the next three to five years.

In this episode, we sit down with Mathias Madsen, CEO of HolePunch, and take a wild ride through the cutting edge of peer-to-peer JavaScript development. Mathias shares his journey from accidentally discovering JavaScript in college to becoming a prolific contributor with over 1,500 open source modules. His passion? Building decentralized, peer-to-peer systems where JavaScript isn't just for the browser—it powers the entire stack.We dive deep into how HolePunch is reimagining application distribution with their Pair system—essentially turning peer-to-peer into a first-class citizen for distributing full applications, not just files. No hosting, no servers — just apps shared directly, BitTorrent-style. And because packaging and distributing Node-based apps can be painfully complex, they took things a step further by building a new runtime: Bear.js.Bear is refreshingly "bare": it strips away the heavy, opinionated APIs bundled into Node or Deno, leaving just the JavaScript core and a powerful module system. What's revolutionary here is Bear's ability to run the same codebase across desktop, mobile, and even tiny embedded devices—swapping out engines like V8, JavaScriptCore, or JerryScript depending on the platform's needs. This allows Mathias' team to write backend logic once, share it across all platforms, and iterate at lightning speed.Key takeaways:-Peer-to-peer can go far beyond media sharing — it's being used for full app distribution.-Bear.js decouples JavaScript from specific platforms, creating a universal backend that just works anywhere.-Modular design isn't just a philosophy — it's the secret to HolePunch's rapid development pace.-The combination of React Native for UI and Bear.js for backend creates an insanely productive development pipeline, fully cross-platform.If you're into JavaScript, peer-to-peer tech, or just love hearing about developers breaking the mold, this one's for you.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/javascript-jabber--6102064/support.
