All of my long-form thoughts on programming, leadership, product design, experiments, and more, collected in chronological order.
The era of the keyboard-bound developer is ending. With Model Context Protocol (MCP), I've transformed coding from manual labor to AI orchestration — shifting from code producer to solution architect. Welcome to the new development paradigm where your skills as an engineer far outweigh your typing speed.
What if I built your website before we even met? Here is the phase 1 of my “10 000 landing pages, 10 000 leads” experiment: scraping, AI, Next.js, Vercel CLI sub-domains, SMS outreach—and why 0 sales won't demotivate me.
The traditional office is on life support. While some companies cling to the idea of a centralized workspace, the reality is that remote work has fundamentally changed how we think about productivity, collaboration, and even the concept of "workplace culture." I’ve been a remote worker since before it became mainstream, and I can confidently say: the office, as we knew it, is over.
Blazor’s new InteractiveAuto render mode is like that friend who insists they’re "low maintenance" but secretly requires a 12-step skincare routine. It promises the best of both worlds (server-side prerendering + client-side interactivity), but when you add authentication? Chaos ensues.
I’ve been a remote worker since 2017—back when explaining my job required clarifying, “No, I’m not a hacker, but yes, I can work from a beach.” While the world discovered pantless Zoom calls in 2020, I’d already logged two years of nomadic coding from Tokyo cafés, Thai co-working spaces, and even a hammock in Réunion.
If you’ve ever shipped more MVPs in a year than Elon Musk has launched rockets, you know the drill: building a fully distributed microservices architecture for a prototype is like buying a Ferrari to drive to your mailbox. It’s expensive, overkill, and you’ll spend more time tuning the engine than actually going anywhere.
