About.me … and failing to pivot
25 Nov 2021 | original ↗

Some context - about.me was one of the first single-page personal websites. All it offered was a simple online presence for people. It was big when it was released in 2010 - a lot of publicity and lots of famous people pushing their personal brands online for the first time. It was one of those sweet ideas where you didn’t need much tech. The...

Loss of focus
21 Feb 2021 | original ↗

Loss of focus, even for a moment, is always detrimental to what we are doing. That is quite obvious at pro-level sports disciplines - the moment you lose focus, your opponent takes advantage and scores. In the end of the day, if you want to be a “pro” in any discipline, you need to learn how to sustain your focus for long periods of time. Always...

Steptember
30 Sept 2020 | original ↗

Just a quick update on finishing the Steptember social challenge/cause successfully. The challenge was to score 10,000 steps per day in September. You form teams of four, keep one-another accountable, compete with others and along the way, raise some money for charity.

Time spent programming is often time well spent
23 Sept 2020 | original ↗

Was the time I spent writing my RSS scripts more than the time I would now spend thinking about the “best” RSS aggregator and reader? Doesn’t matter. I enjoyed writing the scripts. I learned new things and got satisfaction out of seeing them run correctly. I get nothing like that out of comparing apps and services. I concur so strongly not only...

Marcus Aurelius on Pragmatism
14 Sept 2020 | original ↗

I’ve been reading “The Daily Stoic” for the last 2 years. Almost every day. To me, that’s one of the best ways to jump-start my days, and it takes only a few minutes. I can easily say that it’s become a habit already.

Why I don’t do affiliate marketing on SaaSHub
13 Sept 2020 | original ↗

During the last year, I’ve been approached on a regular basis with requests to take part in various affiliate and referral programs. To be honest, some of them seemed decent and applicable to SaaSHub. For example, a VPN service. If we take the “Best VPN Software” page, it is quite suitable for including an affiliate link to a relevant VPN...
