The roast
Tomasz lists three different versions of his name on his profile, likely because even he has trouble remembering which personality he’s faking for this particular pivot. With an engagement rate of 0.33%, he isn’t catching a tornado; he’s just a human weather vane for exits.

I’ll be in Munich next week for Bits & Pretzels. My mission: find a few German software agencies before everyone suddenly becomes an “AI Engineering consultancy” in 2027 ;) We’re expanding the Open Mercato partner network into Germany. I’m looking for agencies / software consultancies that want to add a new service line: building custom CRM, ERP-ish systems, internal tools and business applications with AI Engineering. We have an Open source foundation + Enterprise architecture. If that sounds like a better business than selling another 6-month discovery phase, let’s grab a coffee in Muni

Most open source projects die in the same place: between the people who love them and the people who pay. This is my realization after yesterday’s launch of Open Mercato Sandboxes. Almost intuitively, we built something that feels like a perfect implementation of Geoffrey Moore’s Whole Product Concept. Geoffrey Moore called the stage we’re in with AI adoption right now “the Chasm.” Innovators buy technology. The early majority buys a whole product: tools, people, training, support. Ship only the core technology, and you stay on the wrong side of the chasm. We spent 12 months at Open Mercat
