Welcome!

You have just arrived at my home page!

Whose home page?

My name is Daniel Santos.

Although Daniel is a very popular name in the USA, I’m actually Brazilian. Santos, by the way, is a very common surname both in Spanish and Portuguese spoken countries, so much so that, according to Wikipedia, “Portuguese slaves with no surname might take the name Santos upon the abolition of slavery” and their subsequent freedom earning — creating a long shot, probably absurd connection in my mind between the Santos and Snow surnames, indirectly linking me and one of my two favorite “A Song of Ice and Fire” characters, Jon Snow (the other being Arya Stark, just to clarify).

I consider myself a lifelong learner. There are so many definitions of lifelong learning out there for me to explain it here, but, in short, this means I’m always up to learning new skills and competencies, being an ever-curious person, always trying to satisfy such curiosity. O love reading, games and technology, the latter being responsible for some people calling me tech savvy and *maybe* a kind of personification of the nerd stereotype.

You can read a little bit more about me, if you want.

You may be interested in my notes, actually a humble and ever growing collection of pieces of information that I consider interesting to keep, as part of my lifelong learning efforts; or maybe the blog posts I usually write.

Besides on this very same home page, you can find me in Mastodon, at @daniel@social.lol. Or, if you prefer, you can contact me by email <daniel (at) omg (dot) lol>.

Please don’t hesitate to look around and, above all, enjoy your stay.
