RECENT OUTPUT
The first one's out
A few months ago I wrote about a micro-vc that isn't one. The first product from that experiment is live. It's called MarkMesh. Here is why this was the first one to build.
Back to the Water
We're selling the house in the Algarve, we're selling Fonte do Palheiro. Here is how this happened. In 2019, I started my sailing journey full-time.
