    Your City, Your Destiny: How Your Environment Shapes Your Life Trajectory

    MINDSET 
    I think Greece varies a lot by area. IMO Athens is basically unlivable, although obviously millions of people there don't see it that way. That was one of the reasons I left. After a while, the dysfunction becomes your baseline. Then, when you try to do more or expect something better, the...

    Short accountability update from my side. I added an accountability feature to HonestCal, so two people can track calories together using an invite code. Two goals for this week: Refine the feature and make it easier to use. Chase user #2 for the card tool with the freelancer. I’m also going...

    No worries. Just be aware that when someone is in a really dark place, advice, motivational quotes from Jeffrey Bezos, snap out of it calls and step-by-step strategies often do very little. If the guy is struggling to even get out of bed, the strategy has to be different. First you need a slow...

    Small update from my side. First, HonestCal is now live on Google Play. I wanted to get it over the finish line, publish it properly, and then say, "Okay, this one is done... at least for now." I do have one regular user who is very happy with it, but she is family, so I am not counting that...

    There is totally a need for an AI coding model that it will ship a minor tool without breaking the bank. Is Gemini that tool?

    How do you turn what you learn into real-life practice?

    MINDSET 
    Figure out what you actually want from life, and what you’re willing to sacrifice for it. Your purpose will change. But your excuses won’t. Another book, podcast, reel, or YouTube video is just procrastination dressed up as self-improvement/masturbation. If you’ve been complaining about the...

    Gen Z Says This Is the Main Reason They Don’t Date: ‘Feels So Unattainable’

    NEWS 
    I totally agree with your mentality. On a different note, I am also infuriated by people saying, “I do not want kids because they are too expensive.” People had children when they were far poorer than we are today. I think many people have been conditioned to seek what is easy and to remain...

    2FA is not enough! Please check the video below Super interesting. Key takeaways (AI generated): The vulnerability is in the telecom network, not the phone. Attackers with access to the legacy SS7 signalling network can redirect calls and SMS messages, intercept authentication codes, and...

    I have a controversial take; I see many more jobs created because of AI and many millionaires being created because of AI. Do you know how much stupid software and how much stupid dashboards are gonna be needed in the future? Someone has to build these or just "push the button". I find it a...

    I think he is always predicting that the end is near, same as Ray Dalio. For both of them, the crash is always next Wednesday. Yes, Burry was right in 2008 and made it big with The Big Short. But in this line of business, you can be wrong most of the time, be right once, go all in, and still...

    If the U.S. Isn't an Option, Which Country Would You Choose Today?

    QUESTION 
    The problem with the Netherlands is that it penalizes ambition. The good life is available when you are poor, so counterintuitively, the best way to exploit the system is either to stay poor or become extremely rich, with €100 million or more. If you are in the middle, you get squeezed. Taxes...

    I see this all the time, and I’m guilty of it too. Automating things that don’t actually move the needle. So, AI can make you feel productive because you automated something, even when that automation creates no meaningful leverage. The real high-leverage action is making the right decisions...

    I use Vercel + Convex for PWAs, usually with Claude Code and Fable 5. It works well, but for a basic website the coding tool matters far less than the structure and content. For a simple business landing page, Astro or Next.js deployed on Netlify or Vercel is enough. Convex only makes sense if...

    This is why I actually love Claude. It tells me exactly what I am doing wrong. So I can course correct on time. ChatGPT is like an echo chamber. An intelligent one which makes it one of the worst kinds. So.. in regards to your problem, you can still give it custom instructions to not do that. It...
