Building, shipping, and scaling — from idea to product to business.

There's a Serbian saying: krv nije voda. Blood is not water. At home it means your bloodline isn't negotiable — that the people you come from, and the people who come after you, are the one thing that never gets diluted. We're building something. More soon.

You catch a good wave, you keep riding it. After years in Poblado the house is full — five or six people every day, cats, dogs, a family growing in about five directions at once. So I spent a couple of quiet months buying a house in Envigado.

A framed map of the stars over Medellín, a HIPAA milestone with six people across three countries, a blood draw, two brothers booking flights, a deal I can't talk about, and two extremely unhappy cats. All in one day. This is what I call building.

Three billion users, no ads, famously free — and now a $2.99 paint job, a username land-grab, and a premium tier named after the very mod it spent a decade banning. The simplest app on your phone just found the cash register.

From zero to HIPAA-compliant: a builder's guide that starts ELI5 and progresses to architecture decisions. Covered entities, BAAs, ePHI, encryption, audit logs, AWS/GCP/Azure HIPAA-eligible services, breach notification, and the 2025 NPRM that turns 'addressable' into 'required.'

Tauri 2 finally earns the default position over Electron — for cross-platform desktop and now mobile from one codebase. The honest case, the trade-offs, and how to make the switch.

Indie hacking is back, but the math underneath it inverted: build cost collapsed, judgment cost did not. The old playbook still works — small surface area, charge from day one, kill fast — it just runs on three weeks now instead of three months.

The Toyota principle that transformed factories also transforms code, workflows, and life — if you have the discipline to pull the cord.

How I automated brew upgrade so I never think about it again. A 100-line bash script, a launchd agent that fires at 10am daily, and a structured error log that writes its own recovery playbook. Quiet on success. Loud and useful on failure.

Every feature, every workflow, every mistake to avoid. The only Things 3 reference you need.

Zapply was my first real startup — a wild experiment to see if I could build something useful, make a little money, and learn what it takes to launch.
