about
Brazilian hobbyist programmer. I mostly do my own thing but I've contributed to some free and open source projects.

I created the lone programming language, a lisp for Linux:

https://github.com/lone-lang/lone

The projects I've published are on GitHub:

https://github.com/matheusmoreira/

I can be reached via email:

hn@matheusmoreira.com

I also have my own website:

https://www.matheusmoreira.com/

If you like my work, consider sponsoring me:

https://github.com/sponsors/matheusmoreira

No pressure though. I do this because I enjoy it.

Yeah. Buying my own domain and migrating my email to it is one of the best things I've ever done. Setting up wireguard into my LAN permanently changed the way I used computers. Looks like it'…

I used it for a while because I write free software and Codeberg was aligned with that. I went back to GitHub because I couldn't get their CIs to work. Now that they banned "heavy LLM usage&…

Yeah. Looks like it's either GitHub or self-hosted from now on. At least GitHub has a Sponsors thing. Not that I'm getting much out of it.

So what? Am I supposed to be upset by this? Distill away. Actually, can I help out somehow? As long as they keep publishing open weights, I'll give them my full support.

Low risk. The western AI models censor even more wrongthink than the chinese ones, not even kidding. Besides, once we have the weights, we can just undo the censorship.
