Thoughts on architecture, technology, AI and life.
I have been programming for almost 10 years, and I can see how AI blurs the boundaries of seniority. Instead of an "I use AI" claim, I ran the MEGA Assessment from mega.dev: a measurement of 95 sessions and 172 real episodes of working with agents. It was a good decision.
A detailed rebuttal of the EuroMaidan Press article reporting Prof. Norman Davies's claims that Zelenskyy's UPA decree 'has nothing to do with Volhynia' — a catalogue of errors, manipulations, and omitted facts.
For years I struggled with a qualified Certum signature on Linux. Turns out all it took was one missing driver and a pcscd service restart. Here is the story and the solution.

First blog post. A quick take on the motivation to create this place, the projects gathered here, and the (not very frequent) plans ahead.
