Over three years ago I stopped building my own stuff and started a 9-5 job as an engineering manager. Maybe it’s not as sexy, but in terms of work-life balance that was the best decision I ever made. One day I might get back to building, but for now I am happy where I am.

When did you last use Wikipedia? Since Google started presenting AI results and ChatGPT, I haven’t used Wikipedia once, but in the past I used it daily.

In 2025, I achieved literally none of my goals that I set for myself.

At least four weeks without coding due to a broken wrist. It was my last time using an electric scooter.

Any cool conferences happening in Sept, Oct, or Nov?

It's time to give vibe coding a try!

I think I might have gone a bit overboard with the size of the flowers! 😂

At the beginning of the year, I ended up in the hospital and wasn't allowed to exercise. Today, for the first time in a while, I hit the gym - I missed that feeling!

As an Engineering Manager, my least favorite part of the job is writing and reading performance reviews. It used to take 1-2 weeks each year—but thanks to LLMs, it now takes just a few days! e.g. summarizing peer feedback speeds up the process massively.

Finally, I came up with an idea for an AI project that would be really helpful at my job. I am eager to buy a domain name and start coding...

I had the worst New Year’s Eve ever, and it wasn’t easy to beat! Hopefully, the new year will be better.

It’s been a while since I built something just for fun, but it’s really hard to find time outside of work. It's time to revisit some of my old ideas.

I recently got engaged after just 4 weeks of dating. It's been amazing, but it's funny how many people feel the need to give their opinions about the timing.

Congratulations, Eddy! I will definitely give this a try! 🚀

As an extrovert in the tech, I often feel like I am in the minority.

Has anyone tried using Amazon Bedrock?

OMG, ever since I arrived in Miami, it feels like I'm in a GTA game! 🌴

I have a work trip to Florida, so for the next 1.5 weeks, I will be in Orlando and Miami. Not bad, but jet lag is killing me right now…

I took a holiday and decided to go on a road trip around Central Europe. Yesterday, I drove from Poland to the Czech Republic, then to Slovakia. Today I continued on to Hungary and Romania. I will be staying in Transylvania for a couple of days to hunt vampires instead of bugs.

Last month, I worked with AWS and Terraform. I really missed doing DevOps work - especially after learning Terraform, I feel like my skills have improved.
