The Angle

Fifteen years of operationalreality gives you a specifickind of filter.

When something new shows up, and right now AI is showing up everywhere, the question isn't “is this impressive?”

It's “does it survive contact with the actual system?” That's the lens I work with.

Capabilities

What I do.

Now

March 2026

Deep in theAI rabbit hole.

Not in a certificate-collection way. In a reading-everything-and-building-small-things-to-see-what-actually-works way.

Also: golf comeback is in progress. Results remain volatile. Bayern Munich fan. Gaming enthusiast when life permits. Know enough about crypto to have an opinion.

Things I'm not saying

AGI by Q4AI replaces everythingJust prompt itNo-code is the futureThe moat is the modelThis changes everything
15Years. E-commerce.

Following

Claude, ChatGPT, Agents, n8n, MCPs. How these things actually connect and what you can build with them.

Building

Automations and agents with Claude Code. Small tools. Will they ever work?

Avoiding

Buzzword soup, hype cycles, LinkedIn thought leadership

The Route

I've beenaround.

MUNICH

01

Germany

Born here

Left a few times. Keeps being home. At this point I've stopped questioning it.

TORONTO

02

Canada

1994 – 1998

Four years that gave me strong opinions about hockey and winter. No regrets.

HERZLIYA

03

Israel

2000 – 2002

Studied. Argued. Learned a lot of things that weren't on the syllabus. Ate a genuinely embarrassing amount of hummus.

BARCELONA

04

Spain

2011 – 2013

The two years I almost didn't take. Still think about the tapas.

MUNICH

05

Germany

Present

Where I work, think, attempt to golf, eat well, and figure out what's actually going on in AI. Bayern Munich fan. Gamer. Probably here for good.

Here now
