Now page

Gabriel Palhares

What am I doing now?

This is a now page, inspired by Derek Sivers and the now page movement.

I love the concept of a now page. It helps a lot and it just works. A now page allows me to share what I'm currently focused on without the need for real-time updates. It's the pure essence of remote and asynchronous communication.

For me, it's also a helpful reminder when I'm feeling unfocused. A now page serves as a public commitment to my priorities and a reminder to stay on track. I'll likely update this page once a month to reflect any changes in my focus or goals.

If you're curious and want to talk about anything, just send me an email or reach me on Discord. I'll enjoy chatting with you.

Work

I'm currently working as an entrepreneur in the transportation and rental industry, with a company focused on trucks and heavy-duty cargo vehicles.

My main goal is to become a great Software Engineer, gain experience, and excel in the industry by solving real-world problems.

Right now, I'm...

  • Updating g.arden, my Zettelkasten project built with Docusaurus.
  • Reading Grokking Algorithms.
  • Completing the JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures course by Colt Steele.
  • In the final year of my Analysis and Systems Development degree.
  • Learning more about Back-end, REST, GraphQL, and Go.
  • Personal

    I consider myself a simple person, and to be honest, I don't need much to be happy. To enjoy my time and take care of myself, I run, lift weights, mountain bike, and play football. But I’m also a nerd at heart, enjoying sci-fi, computer games, and exploring topics in science, astronomy, and technology.

    Right now, I'm...

  • Training to run an 18k race in late 2024.
  • Focused on hitting the gym, being healthy, and gaining weight.
  • Reading Antifragile.
  • Learning and practicing Spanish.
  • Playing DotA just for fun.
  • Saving to buy an equatorial telescope.
