+Title: Now

+
+I'm an Research and Development engineer but that doesn't describe my job very
+well. What I'm doing now doesn't neither but it's a good way to show how random
+my lifestyle is. All these points are the things I've been doing for the last
+few months that are still active in my mind.
+
+On the keyboard:
+
+- I'm the guy behind ElenQ Technology, as you know.
+- I'm interested on programming languages and the design decisions behind them.
+ - I'm coding a lot of Scheme these days, mostly in Chibi, but also in Guile
+ for my Guix.
+ - I'm studying Common Lisp as a replacement for Clojure for some stuff
+ where I don't want to install a JVM.
+ - Still do a lot of Python.
+ - I'm able to code in many other languages, though, but I may or may not be
+ interested on starting my own projects on them.
+- I'm making a publishing house to make technology accessible for everyone at:
+ <https://en.goteo.org/project/elenq-publishing>
+ - The publishing house forces me to write some of the contents, translate
+ others and prepare all the paperwork.
+ - It also made me prepare a full set of tools for preparing the files
+ automatically that even create the covers of the books programatically.
+- I teach advanced computing topics for companies or individuals who need them.
+ I prepare the courses on demand and sometimes they let me write actual books
+ as course material. Last months I taught these topics:
+ - Advanced Python (20 hours)
+ - Web Scraping (30 hours)
+ - Modern C++ (30 hours)
+
+Out of the keyboard:
+
+- I'm interested on bookbinding. I made several notebooks and photo albums for
+ my friends (I'll post pictures).
+- I learned about leather craft and made some wallets too.
+- I'm making simple 2D plotters with scavenged electronics.
+- I'm working on a simple computing device for coders and writers, but I didn't
+ talk about it yet[^ssh].
+- I spend a lot of time and resources trying to heal myself.
+
+[^ssh]: Ssssh! Don't snitch!
