A hello world post
First off, a confession.
Iāve been always an internet lurker with some timid public contributions.
Most of what Iāve learned over my career is because the web, a place where, among other things, people use their personal time to organize and share pieces of knowledge, often for free.
Iāve always felt a bit guilty. That particular feeling in the gut when you owe something to someone.
To mitigate that feeling, I did some attempts in the past, in the spirit of giving back, but nothing worth to mention.
Iāve always told myself a lot of shit in order to keep the things as is.
The most common? That itās too late to begin, that itās something I should have done years ago.
Bullshit. You know what?
Itās never too late to start something.
Last year I thought, more than usual, about this issue and Iāve decided to take action.
Iāve committed myself to write more.
Writing is a wonderful tool to both organize thoughts and foster new perspectives.
But writing alone is not enough. Publishing is also an important aspect.
So, hereās my Hello World (a blog is not a blog without a hello world post)
Yes, Iām starting a blog (and you should too).
Iām not sure which kind of blog is going to be.
I suspect Iāll write mostly about my professional life and things Iām interested in like design, computation, data and user experience alongside all the possible intersections in between.
If this happens to be useful for someone, thatās great.
The easiest part done! Now, letās keep the commitment up.
