Hey, I’m
I’m a web developer trying to figure out this weird thing called the internet. I write about development, the web, games, music, and whatever else I feel like writing about!
I was born and raised in Brazil, living amongst the vineyards of Serra Gaúcha. I built my first website when I was 9, then got sidetracked by video games and started learning development for real when I was 17. I fell in love with building things for the web and now, 12 years later, I feel like I’ve done a bit of everything.
Lately, I’ve been working on taking companies’ online presence to the next level at Useful Group, playing video games and looking for cool things to write about here.
Things might look a little wonky or keep changing - that’s because this site is still under construction. I’m probably tinkering with something right now.
You're still welcome to look around, though!

A very interesting premise in the beginning, very interesting characters in the middle, and an ending that stuck the landing. What else could you ask for? It doesn’t try to be anything more than what it is: a good movie. Wish more movies were like that.

Misty day in Colico, Italy.
Sunken Mountain
The lake at night is just a soothing as it is eerie.

Miss the feeling if watching TV as a kid? This site allows you to surf channels on a retro TV, and you can even choose the decade you want!
Unfortunately it seems it only has US TV, so I can’t really relate to anything there. Would love a Brazilian version of this!

Fantastic video essay about loneliness, technology, and the loss of our ability to do.
Beware that there’s some (I assume mild?) spoilers of Death Stranding 1 & 2 in there.

There’s a great movie in here but I feel the pacing is really off. Each act takes waaaay too long to get going, and by the time they got there I was tired of it already, and ended up not caring as much. Good ending though.
Sandboxels - Experiment with Pixels
This is amazing! This is a pixelated sandbox that allows you to experiment with all kinds of materials and elements, and see how they interact with each other. Each material interacts with others differently, as they would in real life. For example, oil won’t mix with water, but ink will.
A lot of time-consuming potential here, so don’t open it if you have something else to do 😅
This is pretty cool! Terry built a RSS reader that rethinks how to approach a continuous feed — or rather, a current — of articles and links. I particularly love how it aims to solve the noisy feed problem, where a source that posts 20 news items a day might drown a really cool article from someone who doesn’t post often, which is a problem I’ve had on every single RSS reader I’ve used (and that I “solved” by unsubscribing from noisy feeds).
It’s a one-time-purchase and on iOS/iPadOS/macOS only, and I haven’t tried it out yet because I just renewed the annual plan for another RSS reader 😅
An AI Agent Published a Hit Piece on Me
This is both funny and incredibly infuriating. A PR was declined on GitHub for an open-source project because it was made by an AI agent and… the AI agent (or the anonymous person behind it) wrote up a defamatory blog post targeted specifically at the project’s maintainer.
If being an open-source maintainer was already a thankless job, now there’s one more hell to endure.

One more for the “it’s good but I’ll never watch it again” group. The movie is great at portraying negative emotions and Rose’s acting is top notch. What it chooses not to show is just as important as what it does.
Stop generating, start thinking
Fantastic piece wielding the power of common sense and highlighting all the struggles that software engineers have with using generative AI on our jobs.
I also use LLMs as a spicy autocomplete (or even a spicy search) and they can be very useful at times. But I can’t replace my thinking with machines, because machines don’t think.

Maple Mono is free, easy to read, has ligatures, and most importantly is incredibly cute.
