Home
Welcome to my website. Over the years I've accumulated quite a large amount of assorted content, in various different platforms, and begun to lose track of it. In order to bring some kind of order to the chaos, I decided to republish all of this material under a single home, using the tools I love - e.g., emacs, org-mode, git and the like. I'm not entirely sure you will find anything particularly amazing around here, but have a browse. If you need to know more about me, see the about page.
Content
The site is organised rather like a wiki, instead of having the more traditional "blog posts" feel. Some of the stuff is very old and was originally published in my blog in blogger — though these days I very much prefer writing and publishing directly in org-mode, and thus my blog has died a slow death. My main topics of interest are — in no particular order of importance — Angola, Finance, Programming, Computational Neuroscience and Football — Vitória Futebol Clube. There may be other topics here too.
| Title | Topic | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Dogen | Programming | Dogen was a code-generator I developed as part of my PhD in Computer Science. |
| Cunene | Programming | Cunene is my personal configuration for Emacs. |

| Developer sites | Programming | I occasionally create questions and answers in developer sites. |
| Interesting | Various, Programming | Assorted bookmarks on stuff I bump into. |
| Twitter threads | Various | Now I found out you can unroll them, started to create links to these. |

Site Tooling
The site is kept intentionally very simple — just a set of org-mode files,
exported to HTML using org-publish. The CSS is our own, a hand-rolled dark theme
living at assets/css/style.css. Syntax highlighting is provided by
highlight.js using the atom-one-dark theme.
On LLMs: Whilst I do use LLMs to help me organise the site (Claude Code in particular), the texts themselves are all written by me, by hand. So far, I haven't even used LLMs to help me organise posts, though as I become more familiar with them, that may change in the future.
Social Media
You may find me in several social media platforms, though I am not the most prolific of posters. Also, this site does not support user commentary, so if for whatever reason you feel the need to reach out, your best bet is to find me on Twitter.
