"Because a reality wasn't given to us and is not there; but we have to make it ourselves, if we want to be; and it will never be one for ever, but constant and infinitely changeable"
Pirandello, One, No One, and One Hundred Thousand

Background

I've been building stuff since I was a kid. It started with wooden planks, followed by Lego. Then abstract idea(l)s. Then software. Then businesses. Now, mainly pragmatic ideas that have a positive impact on society.

Born and raised in Italy, I'm living in the Lake District (UK). In the past life I was a lizard, this explains my desperate search for sunlight.

What I write about

This is a space where I copy-n-paste what comes out of my internal flow state. Which can be problematic, but generally interesting.

  • Ideas
  • Life Stuff
  • Technology
  • Consciousness

The Writing Process

I write on paper, slowly. Then I take pictures of the pages and scan the text into a Markdown file. No additional edits, YOLO on what I already impressed on paper.

I use AI everyday, but not to write or correct the content in this blog. So, every mistake is uniquely mine.

Outside of work

I enjoy being a father and a partner.

I immerse myself in nature as much as possible.

Cooking, training, walking, sleeping, playing. All great activities for the soul.
