28.01.2026 12:13 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The months ahead are intense. Nearly 40 flights and 20+ events up to June.
Next stops: Singapore, Vienna, Zurich, Prague, and more.
If our paths cross, letβs connect.
Iβll keep going deep on engineering, but I also want to talk more about leadership, career growth, and the things you canβt learn from docs.
If youβre navigating challenges, Iβm always open to listening.
Tech and non-tech topics donβt compete. They complement each other.
28.01.2026 12:13 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0It was the first time I spoke publicly about parts of my journey that usually stay off stage, career uncertainty, growth challenges, health.
The response made something very clear: thereβs real value in making space for these conversations.
Didnβt expect this at all.
Since the ConTejas episode came out, Iβve received a wave of messages. From people Iβve known for months to over a decade. Different backgrounds, same impulse to reach out.
That meant a lot.
Massive thank you to @tej.as for inviting me and creating the platform β€οΈ
Looking forward to it! Coming all the way from Zurich with @bugdan.dev and @farisaziz12.bsky.social. See you there. Looking forward to meeting you :)

We've got a new hero section for zurichjs.com, the meetup website. We've been experiencing incredible traffic on the meetup page from a year of SEO efforts.
Now it should be much easier to distinguish between our conference and meetup! Thank you for the design @nadja-hesselbjerg.bsky.social π«Ά
We just shipped a massive performance improvement to the conf website and pushed to render as much as we can statically. This also introduced a bug where localized currencies were not displaying (only CHF). This has been fixed: conf.zurichjs.com

Do senior engineers write "worse" code? @farisaziz12.bsky.social says we might because we must serve business first instead of always trying to be technically correct.
What do you think?
The ZurichJS team is coming to Vienna next month!
25.01.2026 12:38 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0What are your wins this week?
Great advice from @farisaziz12.bsky.social on ConTejas Code: always end with a win.
The more influential you are, the more responsibility you have to encourage those around you. @kentcdodds.com does this extremely well.

Know @tanstack.com ? Of course you do.
And you probably know @tkdodo.eu too, with his contributions to large codebases @sentry.io , as well as TanStack Query + Router.
We couldn't be more excited to welcome Dominik to Zurich JS Conf 2026.
He'll be delivering a talk AND a workshop. Come to ZRH!
