Well, maybe I’m not popular enough to be frequently asked about all these things; however, you can treat this page more like an aggregator for some of my handy answers.
If you have a question that was not listed on this page, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me. I will also try to let myself be known in different posts and pages of this blog.
-
Why did you start this blog?
I tried to answer this question in depth in my first post. Briefly speaking, I enjoy writing, and I would feel unfulfilled keeping all the exciting stuff locked in my mind without sharing it with someone who might greatly benefit from it. -
What is your life goal/direction?
To be happy with what I do for a living and contribute as much as I can to the constantly developing world, leaving the universe in a better state in the end. -
Your motto?
”Try to be the best version of yourself”I also keep “Done is better than perfect” close to my heart, to ease my fight with procrastination and perfectionism. You can find the list of all my favourite thoughts (updated regularly).

What books are you currently reading? Do you post reviews?
Of course, you can check my reading progress and the reviews on my Goodreads profile. I am also spending a lot of time with online materials and annotating them with my Hypothes.is account. -
Favourite entertainment website?
SoundCloud for music and X/Hackernews for online discussions. Talking about SoundCloud, I realised it is not only my main entertainment website since 2012 but also a permanent source of joy through everyday fresh tunes that I like and turn into playlists. Thanks to this orange cloud, I’ve found many artists, friends and sources of influence, such as Aika, CruciA, synx, Skyvoice and Souhex, who play a huge part in my life.In my free time, I want to be more active on the site and start sharing more of my own creations.

Favourite TV show?
I don’t usually watch any TV series, but Mr. Robot gave me a great deal of time for reflection. -
I want to be like you or XYZ!
Don’t waste your time trying to be like anyone else. Moreover, do not compare yourself to others, since it can only hold you back. Let yourself have some influencers, but do not copy them. Everyone is beautiful in their being, and this is why the world can advance, by brainstorming through unique views and forming exceptional solutions. -

A few ways: sign up to my newsletter, subscribe to the RSS feed, watch the GitHub repo, or keep an eye on the “Last updated” info in the footer of each page. -
