Frontier AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are competing hard, while open source models are catching up fast. This competition is driving costs down. The price per 1M tokens keeps dropping, which means you can do a lot more for a lot less. So the old excuse of 'I don't have the budget to use AI in my business' is quickly disappearing.
Read moreThe first Monday of the new year always feels like a reset button. For our service company, yesterday marked the official restart, and as expected, it was a busy one. The day was filled with catch-ups, follow-ups, and lots of reconnecting with clients who had patiently waited for us to get back into full swing.
Read moreSome Sundays move at their own slow pace, and yesterday was one of them. I went into the weekend feeling excited to refactor a piece of code that’s been bothering me for weeks. But by Sunday evening, the work was still unfinished and instead of accepting that, I spent way too much time complaining to
Read moreIt’s finally TGIF. That feeling of “Friday” has shifted a lot over the years. When working for a company, Fridays used to mean freedom, the countdown to switching off, getting some rest, and temporarily stepping away from anything work-related. It was the mental signal that the week was over and life could resume for a
Read moreStarted later than usual today. Not because it’s Saturday, but because two days into this 31 day sprint my brain is already feeling the cost of reading line after line of code for more than 12 hours a day. There’s a very real point where the text editor starts to blur and every function begins
Read moreJan 1, 2026 (1/31 Days) Happy New Year 🎉 Nothing fancy from my side this year. Just one simple goal, 31 days. This month is going to decide how the rest of the year goes for me. Every year, like most people, I make a list of resolutions. Some years I hit most of them,
Read moreAs most people were winding down from Christmas Eve to the 28th, I did something a little different. I gave my team the week off, told our clients we were on holiday break, and then quietly disappeared into our codebase. Running a 24/7 ops company means “off” time is rare. There are always pings, messages,
Read moreAnother great Weekly Roundtable session today. It’s only our second session, and honestly, it couldn’t have gone better! I think everyone should definitely check it out! It’s an unscripted, no-agenda space where amazing professionals from all walks of life come together to talk business, technology, and everything in between. What began as a simple Sunday
Read moreWeb Summit has always been a special event for me. Aplace where I get to meet inspiring founders, connect with passionate startups, and soak up a vibrant atmosphere of innovation. Naturally, I’m always excited to attend. But this time, I want to take a step back and share a more honest review of my experience,
Read moreToday was one of those deeply focused, high-output days where everything revolved around AI. I spent the day running multiple AI agents simultaneously, managing several parallel projects. Some of these are real products we’re currently developing with the team, while others are experimental side projects that I like to build when I need a creative
Read moreRunning a business is a constant lesson in unpredictability. No two workdays are ever the same, and last week was the perfect example of just how much things can swing from one extreme to another. At the start of the week, everything seemed to click. There was a burst of energy and focus, I felt
Read moreLast few weeks have been an intense mix of milestones, challenges, and personal moments. It’s been one of those periods where everything seems to happen all at once, and you just have to keep moving forward. After years of late nights, countless iterations, and more “what if we tried this…” conversations than I can count,
Read moreCloudFest has been on my radar for a while, and this year I finally made it happen. In March, I found myself at Europa-Park in Rust, Germany, surrounded by over 11,000 cloud and internet infrastructure professionals. And yes, it’s as unusual as it sounds, a massive tech conference taking over an entire theme park. For
Read moreTowards the end of last year, I discussed the importance of investing in oneself. This investment is essential not only for acquiring new skills but also for improving various aspects of life that can enhance productivity. Such personal growth can positively impact professional performance and overall well-being.

Read moreOver the past few years, I’ve made plenty of purchases. While many things I buy end up in daily use, or sometimes gather dust. But when I think about what’s truly added value to my daily life and productivity, a few standout investments come to mind. Here’s what’s made the biggest differences recently: 💻 Mac
Read moreA couple of weeks back, one of my good friends Satyajit Morais came all the way to visit me here in Italy. We first met 7 years ago, back when I was just starting my company. It was in a co-working space, where he was also renting a space. Something clicked and our vibes matched,
Read moreMy journey with Drupal began when I joined a new company in IT, after leaving my previous role at the time. It was a time of great learning and growth at a fast phase. I was exposed to cutting-edge technologies, advanced infrastructures, and the opportunity to collaborate with international teams. These experiences helped me develop
Read moreLast week, I sprained my ankle. Not once, but twice in the same day. (Talk about overachieving!) This double misstep landed me in the hospital, where the doctor ordered two weeks of complete rest with no walking, no gym, and definitely no morning meditations. At first, I was bummed. My daily routine was completely messed
Read moreRecently, I stumbled upon a few old Zoho videos from around 2019, including keynotes and product demos. Watching them brought back a lot of thoughts, especially around their emphasis on culture, teamwork, and work-life balance. It was refreshing to hear how they valued the importance of people not just as employees but as individuals who
