As life progresses, it naturally creates a lot of challenges.

Lately, I have been pondering the waste we generate as we live and the ways to reduce it.

The people I'm following on the internet put me inside a small but vibrant retrocomputing bubble.

While this blog was silent, my life was buzzing with activity.

You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. -- Steve Jobs Normally, I’m not a quote person, and don’t get inspired by them much.

Hype is a loaded word, both in meaning and energy.

The year is ending in a couple of days, and I wanted to leave a public note about how it went for me. 2023 was an interesting year.

During my lifetime, I have met with people who had certain skills, like reading the weather, or knowing a technical subject inside out, or being able to learn pretty quickly while being thorough.

As a part of my minimalism journey, I'm trying to reduce my digital footprint.

During the pandemic, I have found a nice application called Pagico, which allowed me to dump everything in my mind, divide them into projects and actionable items.

Learning and being informed about new technologies is a habit of mine.

In recent years, a lot of note taking applications (or personal knowledge base tools if you prefer the term) have entered the space.

As I try to move towards minimalism, I discover what it is like in different dimensions.

I have been observing a trend both in blogs and general internet discourse, but instead of pointing fingers, I decided to sit back, observe and assume that I'm the man who was yelling at the cloud.

There are things which mesmerizes me, with no end.

This is first of a series of posts where I talk about the tools and technologies I prefer to use.

Lately, I’m working on a new tool which will help me to automate the tasks I manually do using my desktop computer.

Recently, I have been following a lot of events that made me uneasy about the future of both GNU/Linux and Free Software in general.

I have been following the whole GitHub Copilot issue for a while, and I was not happy about Microsoft using open-source code hosted in GitHub without consent for training Copilot.

Exploring minimalism is a multifaceted journey.

I had to travel recently for a conference, and I decided to apply what I've learned about minimalism so far.

This post builds upon "I decided to trust cloud storage".

I've been pondering about minimalism, and trying to implement it into my life for quite some time.

Web ecosystem has changed a lot in the recent years, esp. in the area of e-commerce, with the rise of cloud computing and subscription economy.
