Every new LLM chat starts without context. Blank slate. The model knows nothing about what I was working on yesterday, who I am, what I understand without explanation. I got used to that. And then I noticed I was starting to write the same way to people. Before, I assumed shared context — colleagues know […]

I’ve had a notebook on my desk for a few years. In today’s world, writing by hand is objectively slow. I can type with all ten fingers. Reasonably fast. But I can’t stop at a keyboard the same way I can with a pen. Something about holding it switches my brain into a different mode […]

Am I better with AI? Definitely yes. Can I measure it? Not really. In areas where I have expertise, I can’t say whether daily use of Claude Code is a genuine multiplier. Compared to how I worked three years ago — I’m honestly not sure. What I do see as a real multiplier is something […]

My consistent note history goes back to 2021. Categorization, editing, deciding what matters — a huge barrier, even with PARA [1] and Second Brain [2]. Always other priorities, time already invested, reluctance to sit down and do it. When LLMs arrived, I had an idea: they’re good at exactly what I’m not — processing text. […]

I was used to working on one task, one screen, in one application window. Arguments in favor that keep spinning in my head: Boris Cherny (Head of Claude Code) works across 5 parallel instances. Peter Steinberger (creator of OpenClaw) runs 3-8 Codex terminals at once. It makes sense on paper – why watch AI "think" […]

I also wanted to try what it feels like to “code something” just for fun. I came up with a project that I had in my head for a long time, but I never found the time to finish it – probably because of its time demands. I too fell for Claude Code and told […]

This year, I participated in several technical interview rounds for two different positions at Bloomreach. I decided to try a different approach: I completely avoided looking at candidates’ profiles – no CVs, no LinkedIn, no internal notes from previous rounds. My Strategy I prepared for each interview using only the candidate’s assignment solution. My reasoning […]

A month ago, I decided to fully switch to the Colemak keyboard layout. Until then, I had been typing on QWERTY and didn’t know how to type with all ten fingers. Now, I can type at a speed of about 30 words per minute. Why did I decide to make this change? I’m digitizing my […]
