Welcome.
I hope my blog finds you well and curious.

    The state of things

    The political spectacle of this year is in full force. So many elections on the same topics that say nothing about problems and all about manipulating people to agree on made up problems.

    With Trump apparently securing the win – only a dubious turn of events could change this, again – it so clear now how the Harris campaign was mostly done to make Trump win.

    Dems picked the most random candidate. Dems focused on the most niche and divisive topics. Dems proposed literally more of the same.

    This is the definition of intentional loss.

    I wonder who decided this and why.

    This week I’ve seen three friends. One talked to me about their drop-shipping startup and his woes with Romanian e-commerce. Another one has a supplement production facility and talked to me about his plans to grow online sales, and his woes with offline deals depending so much on networking and so little on product quality. The third hand held me two hours through a demo of his quest to invent the ultimate gamification engine, and we both complained about the woes of doing a startup in this economy.

    I could barely share my WordPress drama. They’re cool people, they ask and try their best to empathise with what my day job exposes me to. But I have to say, it’s now as raw as their struggles. It’s just a story of mine about yet another person’s project.

    So I end up my week asking, what is my project? Why am I so available to listen to, get involved into, passionately argue for, other people’s projects?
