Work and projects

Currently contracting at TinyPilot.

I’ve been looking for interesting problems to solve with a B2B product. After doing some software experiments and some customer interviews, I found something interesting but super competitive and broad. I dug deeper and discovered a potential (adjacent) problem in a niche. The problem seems to exist, at least for the one person/business I’ve managed to talk to, and I’m selling them an MVP. I haven’t been able to talk to any others dispite trying, so I need to figure that out.

liftingstones.org is taking a back seat for a while. I’m not sure exactly how long, but I’m not setting aside any project time for it – I’ll only be spending my own personal time.

Personal

2026 is already speeding by.

I’m scheduled to lift the Dinnie Stones in June. I had a back injury for a while which impacted training. And then I’ve had other pain here and there. So training hasn’t been the best. Starting my training block leading into the lift in about a week.
