now

  • Journal: Sept 2025

    • I still feel that tingling in my fingers, itching to write more.
      • This is my fifth “/now” update, and I’m absolutely in love with this concept. It reduces a lot my need for publishing stuff on social media.
    • Work
      • Spending most of my time building Air Fiesta, a new project that evolved from a Google Earth experiment where people flew together in a hot air balloon, listening to local stories, radios and voting on where to go next (Quite chaotic). Now, it’s a multiplayer game for people who love traveling, still featuring a hot air balloon on Google Earth, which is just beautiful. This is an attempt to return to my roots in game development. Check my build log.
      • Still working a bit on Smart Keys, but the project is profitable and basically runs on auto-pilot.
      • Still helping Prospera Mental Health and Youper with tech challenges.
    • Volunteering
      • Sustainable Walnut Creek: We had amazing events this year so far, Earth Month, Exploration Station at the Library, and Community Forums.
    • Learning
      • Not learning anything new outside of tech. 🙁 I’ve paused my efforts to learn Korean for now. Hangul is so, so beautiful. And also quite hard. I already gave up on this goal for this year. But I feel I’ll return soon. Thank you, Ryan Estrada for these mnemonic drawings.
    • Relaxing
      • Saturdays you can find me having a delicious Omega at Rooted Poets Corner, at the beautiful PH Library.
      • Trying to read less and less news. But reading more and more books.
      • We spent almost 3 months in SF taking care of some pets. I was missing so bad my dog in Brazil that we decided to pet sit around bay area using TrustedHouseSitters, this is so cool, we can meet amazing people, pets and also new cities.
    • Exercise
      • I’m not cycling or running much, but I am doing more indoor exercises guided by Pabllo Vittar. I set a goal for myself to exercise every day; daily exercise is non-negotiable. It’s like brushing my teeth, maybe even more important. ‘NON-NEGOTIABLE, do you hear me, Dieguito?’

    • I still feel that tingling in my fingers, itching to write more.
      • The inspiration from other makers led me to create this website and be part of the “Building in Public” movement for the first time. Butterflies!!! ཐི༏ཋྀ󠀮ʚїɞ
        • I’m still migrating all my content scattered across the web to this platform. I realized it’s really sad to see my work on platforms that will soon disappear or are owned by people I don’t resonate with.
        • This is my fourth “/now” update, and I’m absolutely in love with this concept. I can see this reducing a lot my need for publishing stuff on social media.

      • AIDS LifeCycle: I was a Roadie (Volunteer) in the final ALC event. After 30 years, they decided to end it. That inspired me to write a little more about it.
    • Learning
      • I paused my Learning Korean initiatives for now. Hangul is so, so beautiful. And also quite hard. I’ll return soon. Thank you, Ryan Estrada for these mnemonic drawings.

    • Exercise
      • I’m doing more quick runnings than riding, quite sad to be honest, I’m missing riding with Peaceful Pedalers and as Training Ride Leader with Wildcats for ALC 2025. I signed up for the Pride Run in SF, it’s a good way to motivate myself to exercise more.
