So here's my reasoning for the design. Sharp corners are actually painful to reach for in the pocket. The corners are too round, but all I had to do was say "100 cards with rounded corners with my domain on it please"

This is what I call a startup! You gather your team and take 3 days to validate your idea. No code. No marketing. Nothing but interviews and Running Lean. Today is the second day. Our idea was a Manschool. Our hypothesis was that men

Disclaimer: I'm writing this to my friends who have no idea what a blockchain is so don't give me shit about how wrong the technicalities are. So yeah, bitcoin's price is super high at the moment with $10000 for just a single BTC. You're

I'm in Riga, enjoying my time with the lovely lady my friends don't see very often :) It's getting to the end of the first month of being unemployed. Cash is running out. The part of my last salary that I put into cryptocurrency has

Tallinn is noisy and it stinks. Loads of people everywhere. It's just like NYC. Except there people are actually friendly and frank. Couldn't get any sleep tonight. Not sure if it's the cars going by or the light shining into the window. Not used

As expected the novelty of freedom is wearing off. There is some anxiety attached to feeling like I have to do something. Perhaps it's just an Estonian thing. Planning to go to the countryside tomorrow. That should ease off the strange feelings. There's a

The day is over and I couldn't be more happy. Delayed a meeting I've been looking forward to tomorrow, but otherwise did a lot of stuff and that included going to the shop happy and spending too much like a true unemployed person. Well

I'm quitting my awesome job. I've read blog posts like this and thought "why are you quitting if it's so awesome" and I've got the same answer as them - sometimes you've just got to move on. This has probably been my

We at Rangeforce have sprints and we just adopted Asana for it. While organizing sprints is fairly easy: Having an epic (large task that is divided into multiple sprints) gets complicated when you need to assign multiple subtasks to a project. Like you're not

Update: it's been a month since my proposal was approved - details at the end. Before my month long vacation I was in a crisis. Now I'm back at work and regardless of the great team and awesome project - I'm feeling the crisis

Not only did I get rid of most of the stuff in the bookmarks bar but I also got rid of the 3 year old server that was hosting a bunch of random sites I own. Some of which are almost 10 years old
