The People I Could Have Been
As we grow older, we often focus on finding ourselves and building a career, but there is another side to that process. Every choice we make also means letting go of other possibilities, and there is a strange beauty in that. We are all shaped by the choices we make, the people we meet, and…

The Strange Comfort of Rituals
I find comfort in my morning routine, which includes a shower, prepared clothes, and a coffee. These simple tasks create a sense of predictability and calm, helping me start my day with focus.

From App Store to GitHub: Why I’m Releasing My Festival App
In 2025, I did something I’d been dreaming about for years – I shipped my first iOS app to the App Store. The Queersicht Film Festival app was a labor of love, built from the ground up for Switzerland’s largest queer film festival. Seeing it downloaded and used by real festival-goers was an incredible feeling.…

Introducing Dark Palette
For a long time, I wanted to add dark mode to websites built with modern WordPress block themes. There are already plenty of dark mode plugins available. Most of them work by swapping stylesheets, injecting lots of CSS or trying to invert existing colours. While those approaches can work, they don’t really fit how modern…

I’m Building a New Notes & Tasks App (and I’m Not Sure If It’s a Good Idea)
I’ve been thinking a lot about how I organize my life. Right now, I use a mix of the built-in Apple Notes, Apple Calendar and Apple Reminders. And honestly… they’re all good. But something still feels off. The Problem I Keep Running Into My notes, tasks, and planning are always slightly disconnected. Everything exists… but…

When AI Gets a Soul
I just discovered something that really made me think: soul.md. It’s built around the idea that AI should not only know what it can do, but also who it is. Not just skills, commands or outputs, but identity, values, boundaries and character. That hit me, because we often talk about AI like it’s only a…

I Didn’t Expect to Fall Back in Love with Pebble
It started almost by accident. Just a small idea, something quick to try. I opened the Pebble smartwatch SDK again, not really expecting anything, just curious what it would feel like to build for it now. And then I didn’t stop. There was something about it that immediately felt different. No pressure to build something…

Who am I? – A reflection on the conference on neurodivergence and gender identity
On March 13, 2026, a groundbreaking conference took place in Zurich, addressing one of the most complex questions of our time: How are neurobiological diversity and the development of gender identity connected in children and adolescents? Under the title “Who am I?”, experts from medicine, psychology, and education explored the intersections of two spectra that…

Small Successes
In social pedagogy, we often talk about big goals. Development. Independence. Progress. These concepts are important, but in the everyday reality of my work, change usually looks different. It starts small. I work with children in a boarding setting at a speech and language school. Many of these children have already experienced that things do…

Paciva: Building a Tool for When Energy Isn’t Reliable
For a long time, I’ve been thinking about energy — not in the productivity sense, but in the very human sense. The kind of energy that isn’t reliably self-renewing. The kind that doesn’t come back just because you slept, or tried harder, or “pushed through.” That question became much more personal when someone very close…

When energy isn’t infinite
For most of my life, I believed — quietly, unquestioned — that energy was something you could always stretch a little further. You get tired, you push. You feel overwhelmed, you power through. You rest later. That belief is everywhere. It’s baked into how we talk about work, productivity, motivation, even self-care. Try harder. Be…
