I have been lucky to have my first computer at age six. It was Atari 65XE, with BASIC programming language built-in. Since then, computers have been my passion, and I have never stopped programming.

I was launching some startups with various levels of success. The usual level of success was a failure. But that was always fun and educational. 10/10. I will do it again.

In my free of screen time, I do adventurous stuff and sometimes play music.

Unfortunately, that’s a bad sign when you start a year review with the word unfortunately, but what can I do?

Unbelievable how relative time is. It feels like we have lived here for at least twice as long.
