Background
A working archive of what Josef is learning.
This site used to carry a commercial advisory brand. It is now Josef's personal blog. The archive is being cleaned into a simpler place for essays, notes, and useful thoughts that do not need a sales page wrapped around them.
Expect writing on AI, founders, product judgment, venture, crypto history, public-stage lessons, and the unglamorous operating details that quietly shape outcomes.

- 8 companies founded.
