Hey everyone, after some tweaking the newsletter is finally working. If you had issues signing up before, try again, it should work now.
New post coming this week. Thanks for the patience.

Newsletter signups are broken, working on a fix.
If you got an error, email me at igor@thelocalstack.eu and I’ll add you manually.
On the quieter posting, I’m not chasing trends. The next piece takes time to do right, and I need to protect my energy as I have to work a full time job. More coming soon.
Thanks for the patience.

If you signed up for the newsletter and haven’t confirmed yet, check your spam folder.
New domain, email clients are suspicious.

100k+ visits on the site.
I started this blog less that two weeks ago, with zero expectations and zero writing experience.
Thank you for reading, sharing, and pushing back.
The criticism made it better.
More coming this week
Stay tuned!

The CEO of Persona, the company that processes your passport, selfie, and facial geometry so you can get a verified badge on LinkedIn, doesn't have a profile picture on LinkedIn.
I'll let you sit with that.
