Fernando's Blog

I’m a software engineer working on performance, reliability and infrastructure. I enjoy measuring things. This blog is about what I find interesting in computers - an idea, a specific number, a failure mode.

I’m moving to Portugal in December 2026. I’d like to meet people working on infra, reliability, systems in the EU. Reach out if that’s you, I’d enjoy hearing what you are building!
