About

I’ve spent my entire life working as a developer and team lead. I’ve worked at about 20 other people’s startups and founded 10 of my own, and I’ve never worked at a large company. I changed jobs about once a year because most startups shut down within that timeframe. Only a handful of them are still in operation today.

Right now, I’m not working or developing my own projects. I’m focusing solely on writing essays for this blog and working on small open-source projects without monetization. All my projects are available on GitHub. I want to step away from development and project creation entirely. I want to devote all my time to reflection, writing essays, and consulting. If I can achieve this goal, and if it provides me with enough income to live comfortably, I’ll be the happiest person in the world.

I love meeting new people. Feel free to send me any kind of message. Tell me about yourself, what you do, and which of my essays you liked or didn’t like. Maybe you have some ideas or suggestions. Or just write me whatever first comes to mind. I reply to all messages within 24 hours. But if I’m busy or don’t feel like replying to emails that day, my response might be delayed. You can contact me via Email or on Telegram.

I’ve never used social media. I’ve never had an accounts on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. I created accounts on X and Bluesky for my blog to cross-post my essays there. But I don’t like it. I don’t participate in other people’s threads, I don’t leave comments on other people’s posts, and I don’t repost anything. I don’t like the whole concept of social media and its algorithmic feed. I’ve never wanted to post short tweets or thoughts that haven’t yet developed into full-fledged essays. But if, for whatever reason, you’d like to follow me on social media, here are the links: Mastodon, Bluesky, X.

To ensure you receive my essays and aren’t at the mercy of algorithms, you can subscribe to RSS, my Telegram channel, or the email newsletter (in the site menu). Right now, I write about 5 essays a month, but I want to write even more. I have over 200 unfinished drafts. And if I put in enough effort, I’ll be able to publish one high-quality essay every day.

I don’t use AI when writing or editing my texts.
