Building easybranding.io to make stand-out branding accessible and affordable to all | Sharing my #buildinpublic journey as I go 🏗️
You know you've got a bit of 'neurospice' in you when your choice of procrastination is over-engineering a way to save your cooking recipes with 3 interconnected notion databases 😃

Just partook in one of my all-time favorite activities. Spilling freshly-made coffee all over my desk and wall 😌

Starting Pachinko today.

Don't know anything about it but I think it's going to be powerful.

Deep product work gets me in such a deep flow state the day literally flies by😌

Horrible for content and marketing, though 🫣

I have to find a way to balance the two.

This is my 1st time as a podcast guest 🫣

It might seem silly but it's a bit of a big step for me because I cringe hard watching myself on video.

But I wanted to push past this fear and get more comfortable with this to improve my public speaking. So here we go 🤓

If January has felt like the longest month ever you’ll enjoy learning about Seiryu Miharashi Eki station 🚉 🇯🇵

If there's a clear sky and golden hour you'll always catch me looking up 😌

I love how the light almost seems to caress buildings. So fleeting. So delicate.

Came back to London yesterday and it tricked me for a second with a full day of sun.

Today it's back to its gloomy damp usual self 🙃

For some extra context.

THAT's insane water consumption.

Last Wednesday I signed in my personal company which I'll use to officially co-found easybranding.io

After a 1.5+ year of betting on myself it was a very significant moment.

I'm grateful and proud.

I could have quit many times.
But I didn't.

I'm just getting started 😌

I hate to be *that* vegan but, even though AI is problematic and something to be wary of on so many levels, the outrage about how much water it consumes is laughable when compared to cattle farming.

Currently reading Babel by R. F. Kuang and I'm LOVING the magic system based on translation.

Something quite unusual about me, given that I now build tech products for a living, is that I graduated in Translation and Interpreting in French and Russian.

Feels like a lifetime ago 🫣

I was trying to watch The Social Network because I wanted to learn more about the origin story of Zuckerberg.

But I'm EXTREMELY annoyed by his character.

Great acting by Jesse Eisenberg. He truly embodies the enraging patheticness of the robotic mofo 🤢

I can't continue.

How weird is it that I regularly have to control myself not to spend ridiculous amounts of time reorganizing my entire life and work in Notion? 😌

After MONTHS of development we are this 🤏 close to releasing the new version of easybranding.io 🟡

Since our launch I took pride on our fast iteration, but the kind of product we wanted to build needed a lot of work and I lost my usual #buildinpublic flow.

But that's changing soon! 🤓

I wonder if I will ever be able to write the word bureaucracy without checking the spelling...

The bureaucratic shenanigans continue...

Looking at the list of activities a company can do, which I'm required to declare, and there are about a thousand subspecies of plants specified for agriculture businesses.

You develop software? One item.

Information Technology Activities.
