notes from underground
"I am a sick man... I am a spiteful man. I am an unattractive man. I believe my liver is diseased." -- Dostoevsky, Notes from Underground the trenches For the past 2 months, I’ve been underground, in the trenches.

my retrospective on Personae
A few weeks ago, we made the challenging decision to pivot our energy away from Personae, the company I've been working on for the past couple of years. We pioneered new ground, we failed to build retentive products, and ultimately we decided to return investor money and re-enter the startup idea maze from scratch. Looking back, it's been a classic

why creddd
I’ve been thinking about the future of online identity for a little while now. ~1.5 years ago, I co-founded Personae Inc. to investigate what felt like a looming sea change.

use cases? or nah
What makes something trendy among crypto builders? How do opinions form around what's 'likely to work' and why does it not seem correlated with what we know to actually work?
