my tech articles - Medium
Back in 2020s, I spent a significant amount of time coding—building applications, experimenting with microservices, learning through trial and error, making frequent GitHub commits, and sharing parts of that journey publicly.
Fast forward to 2025s, my role has evolved. I now find myself coaching juniors, advising on and validating architecture decisions in my professional work, developing architectural proof-of-concepts through volunteer initiatives, publishing technical articles, and once again actively contributing code and projects on GitHub.
Looking back, I'm grateful that I never stopped learning. When AI arrived at scale, the speed and efficiency of learning changed dramatically. What once took months to grasp can now be learned in days or weeks. For me, this marked a turning point—reaching a stage where building and learning in the digital space, when augmented by AI, feels almost unconstrained. I recognize that this is possible largely because I had already built a strong technical foundation and mental models over the years, allowing me to move in the right direction with clarity and intent.
The latter part of 2025 was not entirely smooth. I encountered setbacks and disappointments. Yet, it was also a necessary phase—a period where re-adjustment and re-positioning became inevitable. In hindsight, I'm glad I began that shift when I did.
