Since stickering my MacBook, I feel like people in public are starting to treat me like a Windows user. Problem solved.

Just found this piece of art in my hotel and barely noticed it was floppy disks. It would be super cool if this was actually on the disks as well. I wonder…

It's actually amazing how much work it has been to get Build Mode off the ground. So many logistics – event planning, meetings, calendars...
But it has been so worth it, and I can't wait to get it officially started tomorrow with 11 really impressive people.
PS: Who found it!?

So, applications close for Build Mode in 9 days.
And I hid something on the website...
Only the smartest people will find it.
If they do, they get to skip the application process entirely.
Only 1 person has been successful so far.

Starting my week by welcoming some very cool people to Build Mode's official launch in 10 days.
I'm working from a local co-working space today. Love the Manchester bee they have on the wall.

It's scratching a big personal itch, too.
If it sounds relevant, here's the site: buildmode.club

I'm not focused on langsesh.com (my language-learning product) right now.
But every day people are still using it to do lessons! 👏
I have big plans for you LangSesh, but I have another mission first.
It's awesome to see it still being helpful for now, though!

Hate to break it to you, but code is a liability. You should strive to have a little of it as possible.

Talking to so many people today about something I'm launching next week.
Having people excited and signing up before launch is a new experience for me, but one I highly recommend.
Also, this level of responsibility and potential is perfect!

As much as I share my love for Vietnam and Thailand, it’s also cool being back on home turf for a bit. MCR is a cool city.

I just walked in here to order lunch, and launched a full-scale assault of her assumptions with:
🇻🇳 Chào chị ạ! Em muốn nói tiếng Việt, được không?
🇬🇧 Hello (respectful, to older lady). I want to speak in Vietnamese, okay?
Got lots of compliments and lunch tasted great.

Want to lose fat? It leaves the body as carbon in your CO2. Raise your heart rate. It’s that simple.
The heart doesn’t know what the body is doing. The exercise doesn’t matter. Keep it raised for long periods and stay consistent. Don’t eat back too much of your expelled carbon.

Morning! A fresh 14° here in Manchester and I’m making the most of it.
It sounds odd, but this cooler air is like gold after so long in places where it’s not.
