Case you’re wondering, I am a Brazilian Senior Web Developer (specialized in Python/Backend) who since 1994 has been tinkering with computers, started using Linux on a daily basis at 1999, bootstrapped a career as a Software Engineer at 2000, pivoted to web development on 2009 and became a self-employed contractor for english-speaking companies at 2022.
