What is your name and what do you do?

Alberto Barbosa.

Many people see my phone and lifestyle as an aversion to technology, so it's worth mentioning that I'm a programmer. I like to play games, watch movies, and read. And for all these hobbies, I love learning about their history. Playing old games, watching old movies, and reading in depth about the history of strangely specific things, even if that knowledge is of no use to me.

Editor's note: The interview was conducted in July 2025.
