Who is Bohdan Varshchuk?
I'm Bohdan Varshchuk (also known as @g3d), computer engineer, entrepreneur, and nerd. Eventually, I'm involved in a set of different activities, including (but not limiting):
- Chief Technology Officer at Teamvoy.
- Co-founder at Assembly.
- Core team member, speaker and mentor at Pivorak Ruby Meetup.
- Proud member of Kottans community.
I'm interested in solving non-trivial problems, so if you have something — drop me a line. My field of interests includes several fields & topics:
- startups, entrepreneurship and making;
- team & product management;
- learning & teaching, human interaction & mentorship;
- blogging and podcasting;
- computer engineering, software design, functional programming concepts;
- unix, linux, open source;
- programming in ruby, javascript, clojure, elixir;
- distributed systems, blockchain, cryptocurrencies;
- Japanese culture, manga, anime and whiskey (Nikka is my favourite one);
- coffee culture, drip coffee & cold brew;
Few other things you should know about me:
- I'm trying to follow protestant work ethic: hard work, discipline and frugality;
- Always ask "why?", understanding matters;
- I believe, that focus, meaningfulness & flow state can produce extraordinary results;
- I'm trying to avoid "filter bubble", so people who disagree with me and can hold in mind two opposite concepts are always welcomed;
- I don't believe in simple solutions for complex problems: there are always trade-offs, especially if you have multiple stakeholders with different requirements/needs/interests;
- I've started programming 10 years old. Thanks to my uncle.
- Isaac Asimov is one of my favourite authors. He has affected my decision regarding my future.
