Most of what you build is the Nth copy of something that already exists, and copies compete down to the cost of the copy. That's why your effort doesn't compound.
The difference between work that survives you and work that evaporates is whether it's a discovery or a copy. A discovery buys you time. A copy is already being priced down to zero.
This essay gives you the accounting that tells the two apart, shows you where the cost of your gains actually lands, and gives you three questions to run on anything you're about to build.
Read it if you've ever wondered why the same effort builds a career one year and nothing the next

I started in tech, discovered product management, and after 95%+ of my applications ended in rejection or silence, finally landed my first PM role at a small IT company.
Working in a tiny team pushed me into both product and marketing. In 2023, a mentor helped me realize that this combination could become my niche: Product Marketing.
After a few months of searching, I found the right fit — a remote-first B2B SaaS startup where I could combine product, marketing, and strategy.
In November 2023, I became a Middle Product Marketing Manager.
My biggest lessons: trust your intuition, don’t let rejection define you, and don’t be afraid to build a career at the intersection of different skills.

A video-conversion interface should not promise a resolution before it knows what the source and provider can actually deliver.
That sounds like a small copy decision, but it is an implementation decision too. A user who asks for 1080p needs an observable path from input to result—not a button that silently substitutes a file without explaining what happened.

A first-person account of switching from fintech (trading at Gazprombank) into crypto at the bottom of the market — right after FTX, with Solana in single digits. The switch wasn't luck: it was a non-obvious match of hard skills (edtech, finance, crypto, user research) and soft skills, signalled loudly over time through public writing and a finance PhD on crypto regulation. The bigger lesson: ugly markets hire for impact, not momentum — so a downturn is often the best time to jump, if you can credibly say "I can fix this."

While building Formatif Pro, I realized that video compression, image conversion, resizing, and audio extraction are often faster, more private, and more reliable when they happen directly on the desktop. This article explores the hidden productivity cost of the "upload tax" and why some media tools may never have needed to become cloud apps in the first place.

Behavioral data is becoming the new standard in talent acquisition by predicting how candidates will perform—not just what they’ve done. Unlike resumes, it measures decision-making, communication, and adaptability through psychometric insights. This leads to better cultural alignment, lower attrition, and faster onboarding. In a hybrid, fast-moving workplace, hiring based on behavior is proving more accurate and effective than traditional methods.

This article challenges the idea that brilliance guarantees success, arguing instead that consistency, adaptability, and practical decision-making are more reliable drivers of long-term achievement. While highly gifted individuals may peak early, they can struggle under pressure and expectations, whereas average performers often progress steadily. The piece reframes “average” as a strength—one that allows for balance, resilience, and sustained growth in an unpredictable world.

The smarter you are, the easier it is to get stuck. Intelligence creates hesitation, doubt, and perfectionism. Success comes from motion, visibility, and repetition. Not mastery. Confidence is built through exposure.

Zettelkasten proposes a way of writing connected notes, and not just a collection of notes. The human brain is non-linear: we jump from idea to idea, all the time.

Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base on top of a folder of plain text Markdown files that you can organize in whatever way you want.
