Just when I was getting good progress today on the morning.

And before I was going to join a call with a biz partner...

Random power outage appeared. 🙄

Had some tech hiccups yesterday.

And today was out away from pc.

But now I'm back and here's something I want to share with you.

Happy Friday folks!

Take the weekend to recharge, go out, and get away from work for a while.

(Or maybe just a little work combined with going out works too) 😅

When AI allows us to get many more tasks done...

The key differentiator is not what we can do

It is what we choose *not to*.

Discernment is the new competitive advantage.

Guess who's back?

It's already Nov 4 and I remember Halloween like it was yesterday.

Don't know to feel about that... 😐

Yooo...

They say time flies when you're having fun.

But it also flies by when you're trying to get an MVP done, fixing bugs, and getting it to work good enough to show to interested folks.

That moment when you want to work and get stuff done.
And your wi-fi connection wants to take a break precisely that day.
You call in to find out what's going on.
They tell you they were doing some maintenance in a nearby town, it should resolve soon.
"Soon".

It's about that time, guys.

The time when you go out of "building mode" and you move into "users testing your stuff" mode.

Hopefully nothing breaks during the onboarding process.
October 28, 2025 at 2:27 AM
Wait. Hold on, buddy.

*I* was the one who identified the issues.
You are stating what I said in a more comprehensive and authoritative sounding way...
October 24, 2025 at 6:09 PM
Alright folks!

Just one more week before the month ends.
The project ends.
Or my sanity does...
October 23, 2025 at 3:22 PM
Another week, another challenge to take.

Looks like this is going to be final straw.
October 20, 2025 at 3:00 PM
Yooo what a week.

I'm so close to finishing, I can almost smell it.

But then little details keep popping up.

Fix this, move that, change that other thing, ohh that thing broke something else, gotta make more fixes...

I'm threading the fine line between persistence and masochism. 😆
October 19, 2025 at 2:59 AM
It's another week and it's already half of October.

Which means less than half a month for me.

And that deadline for the project...
October 13, 2025 at 3:45 PM
I don't know if it's because today is Friday but I feel particularly optimistic.

Even though my current situation haven't changed that much.

I have a strange sense of calmness and "chill vibes".

On that note...

Enjoy your weekend!
October 10, 2025 at 7:20 PM
One part of me already sort of gave up.

And another part keeps going and doing the work just for the heck of it.

Who knows, maybe it will work out or maybe not.

But I wouldn't know if I don't give a honest try (despite all the setbacks)
October 10, 2025 at 2:47 AM
It's Wednesday and if I can get through 2 more days, I'll make it to the weekend!

But who am I kidding...

Saturday, Thursday, Monday. It's all the same for me at this point.
October 8, 2025 at 5:17 PM
What did I do today on Sunday?

Surviving the sleep deprivation.

That's it.

Was not much but it was needed.
October 6, 2025 at 1:49 AM
Had a deadline coming up.

I thought I could get 3 solid work hours.

Started at 10 pm. No distractions. Focus playlist on.

I won't blame flow state that made hours pass like minutes while I tried to make a feature work.

Ended up going to bed at 4:15 am.

And could only get 2 hours of sleep. 😅
October 4, 2025 at 6:20 PM
At this stage in my life, I can't pull off all-nighters.
(Especially when I have physical work during the day.)

But at least I can get some solid work hours during the night.

And just for limited times, sleep like 3-4 hours...
October 3, 2025 at 3:46 AM
Interestingly enough, I've found that doing work on the many different fronts that *are not* coding it's easier for me.

That would be ok if it weren't for the fact that *I have a deadline to meet in less than 20 days!*
October 1, 2025 at 2:22 AM
Had a great plan for the day ahead.

Woke up at 5:30 am to start crossing tasks off.

At 6:10 am, the plan went down the drain. I had to fill in for someone who didn't come to work.

It's 10:30 pm and I've been putting out fires and trying to get actual work done. Tomorrow will be another day.
September 30, 2025 at 3:29 AM
I can say that I survived one of the most demanding and taxing weeks I've had in Months.

Doing physical work, trying to meet deadlines, and dealing with family stuff.

Thank God the week ended and I still keep some of my sanity going...
