The green squares picked up in May
by Ivo Fokke,
I became a developer this year, at my age, with no bootcamp and nobody asking me to reverse a linked list on a whiteboard. This spring I opened Claude Code. In May I started putting the work into GitHub, about 1,100 commits across 18 repositories since, and the graph started telling the truth. I was never the person typing. Now I describe, test and ship. Parly's new helpdesk mode and Bonnie, an expense app built in two weeks, show what that looks like.
Blake now reads your week for you
by Ivo Fokke,
A few months ago I wrote about why I built Blake, my own CRM. Here is what happened next. It now emails each workspace a plain-language summary of the week every Monday, ending with a short list of the deals worth a look. It also got more reliable after I found and killed a bug that was quietly dropping real leads, and it finally grew a look of its own.

I love wearing blue t-shirts.

I'm Ivo Fokke, an entreprenerd based in Amsterdam with a passion for digital privacy. I'm into logistics, delivery networks, continuously contemplating on a new t-shirt brand, and occasionally sharing my thoughts on this blog.
As a founder and investor I am actively involved in a couple of companies. These days I am the CIO of the Rapid Logistics Group, I am trying to make the web a more private place with Soverin and I recently kick-started a blogging service called Lavvus... well, you are actually looking at it :).
You got to be starting something
Sometimes I (co-)invent, (co-)build and/or (co-)invest in innovative projects (preferably) by the next generation of entrepreneurs.
