Hi there.

This is my personal site, I created it to fulfill the need of having my own place to drop notes, thoughts, pictures, or whatever I want to share on the internet. I like the concept of Digital Gardening and that’s the intention I have with this site, so you probably are going to find publications that may not have sense at all, but they do for me. I also believe in the idea of learning in public, so you are going to find a lot of “Today I Learned” (TIL) kind of notes which are short publications containing small fragments of information about something new I’ve learned.

I work as a software engineer and I have been doing so for about 10 years now, mainly focused on the backend, but I have done some frontend stuff too. I also have other interests that I explore in my free time such as reading books, writing, learning English, and exercising.

Feel free to look around and I hope you find something useful.

Taking Back The Web

[10:59] Where Jeremy talks about the disadvantages of using platforms such as FaceBook, Instagram, or Twitter.

The Small Web

On the Big Web, you never own your own home. You must rent your home from Megacorps. Most often, you don’t have to pay for your home using money. You pay for it by forfeiting your privacy, freedom of speech, and your other human rights. Collectively, we pay for it by forfeiting a democratic future.1

The Web Revival

Surfing the web is about going on an adventure, it’s about clicking links and seeing where they go. You won’t find Web Revival sites on typical search engines, you won’t find them on social media sites and no algorithm will pick them out for you. To surf the Web Revival, you start on one site, you find links and you follow the trail; be brave, explore, keep going, keep going!1
