About me

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Hi, my name is Paulo Pereira.

I’m a coordinator at SIBS, the central utility for payments, running the payment system end-to-end for more than 30 years, serving Banks, the Central Bank, government, etc.

In 2005 I started working as a consultant in Novabase, where I stayed until 2017 when I joined SIBS.

I’m a Linux and Open Source enthusiast in my spare time and I really enjoy reading. I’ve also been meditating since 2016 with Headspace.

Reading is one my favorite things to do since I was little.

For the last years I’ve been reading ebooks in a Kindle Paperwhite and listening to books using Audible or audiobookshelf.

Science Fiction Top 50 Books and Series

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

This is my current Science Fiction Top 50 Books and Series, last updated in 2022-12-20.

Here’s some note about this list:

It has single books, all series or one or more books in a series
It’s based on my “now that I’m doing this” feeling and I’m sure it will change over time
I considered the books I read since I started to organized them, so it’s probably lacking
I add a (*) in front of the new entries
I add a (#.) with the previous position
Check how this list changed over time here
