A lot happened since my last post and all parts are already here! 😃 It was expected that I would not have that much time to work on the keyboard when all the parts arrive, this will be a long journey. The only thing that I wanted to do as soon as possible was to check if the products were in a good condition. These are cheap parts coming from China in a month-long journey, so it’s important to check if they are working as expected while I still can open a dispute with the seller if something is wrong.

Nesse quarto post da série de PF & PJ eu vou explicar o que eu sei sobre o Lucro Presumido para o nosso tipo de trabalho (desenvolvimento de software), como é o dia-a-dia de impostos e porque decidi migrar do Simples alguns anos atrás. DISCLAIMER: Eu não sou contador, mas essas são as informações que eu levantei depois de toda a minha pesquisa, assim eu consegui conversar melhor com os contadores.

Nesse terceiro post da série de PF & PJ eu vou explicar o que eu sei sobre o Simples Nacional atual e como era a minha vida quando minha empresa era optante. Esses não são assuntos tão divertidos de se falar aqui no blog, mas são eternos motivos de conversas com amigos para enteder o que é mais viável para eles, portanto eu resolvi escrever sobre o meu caso e o que eu sei.

Book: When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing, by Daniel Pink. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I read this book two times. The first time I had no context and was just looking for something to improve myself. The second time I read it to review everything I used and implemented so I could quote the book when writing an article about how to manage your energy to be more effective. The book provides amazing insights if you like to base your decisions on scientific research.

Esse é o segundo post da série de PF & PJ e vou contar sobre a minha epopéia de como foi abrir uma empresa em 2017 e o que escolhi. A ideia principal desse post é mostrar para as pessoas como é abrir uma empresa de desenvolvimento de software, os custos envolvidos e qual a melhor forma (IMO) de estruturá-la. DISCLAIMER: Eu não sou contador, mas essas são as informações que eu levantei depois de toda a minha pesquisa, assim eu consegui conversar melhor com os contadores.

Book: J.R.R. Tolkien: A Biography, by Humphrey Carpenter. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. It’s not a secret to anyone that I’m a big fan of J.R.R. Tolkien. I have 3 versions of this book. A translated version (pt-BR), the original version in English, and the audiobook. It’s no news that it would be a 5 star book to me. I just listened to the Inklings book by Humphrey Carpenter, so it was the best time to also listen to this one (yes, I went for the Audiobook).

Esse é um texto que eu escrevi em 2017 quando eu comecei a abrir a minha empresa. Como o post ficou interminado e eu acho que ainda tem valor, eu resolvi terminar e publicar. Vou escrever uma pequena série de posts sobre esse lance de formas de trabalho e a minha experiência fora de CLT.

Book: The Inklings: C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Charles Williams, and Their Friends by Humphrey Carpenter. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I’m giving it 5 stars because I enjoyed it a lot and it came at the right time for me. For most people, it will probably be a 4-stars book. I’m a big fan of J.R.R Tolkien and also the concept of the Inklings. I have my own spin-off of this group with some friends but instead of discussing literature, we just take some time to have some deep conversation about anything.

After build the Iris keyboard I decided to start a new quest to build a Dactyl-cc (as I mentioned at the end of the Iris post 😉) Dactyl is the keyboad I wanted to build from the start but I certainly didn’t have the skils to do it. I decided to first build a “portable kinesis”, so I could take it with me when I was traveling and Iris seemed like a great fit for this and not that hard for a first project.

Book: Programming Rust: Fast, Safe Systems Development. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. This is a great book for sure. I started reading it in 2017 but never find the time to read it. Now, thanks to having two babies at home, I have enough time to read while waiting for them to sleep. :) There are many things I like about this book. The first is the comparisons with C and C++ since both authors are/were C/C++ developers.
