Describe yourself here My name is David Pires, I am 45 years old, live in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porto|Porto]], a fabulous city in the north of Portugal, and I work in a Portuguese government agency as a programmer, primarily in [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_(programming_language)|Java]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL|SQL]], since 1994.
Aside from my family, there are three things without which I could not keep my mental sanity, which are cinema, music and my books.

My first contact with computers goes back to 1984, when my parents offer me my first computer, a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZX_Spectrum|ZX Spectrum 48K]], and with it I started to learn my first programming language, [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BASIC|Basic]].

I started using Linux by the time of Jaunty Jackalope release, in 2009, and since then I've tried several other Linux distributions such as [[https://www.archlinux.org/|Arch Linux]], [[http://www.centos.org/|CentOS]] and [[http://www.debian.org/|Debian]], but I always came back, one way or the other, to the one I feel more comfortable with, which is Ubuntu.

About Me

My name is David Pires, I am 45 years old, live in Porto, a fabulous city in the north of Portugal, and I work in a Portuguese government agency as a programmer, primarily in Java and SQL, since 1994. Aside from my family, there are three things without which I could not keep my mental sanity, which are cinema, music and my books.

My first contact with computers goes back to 1984, when my parents offer me my first computer, a ZX Spectrum 48K, and with it I started to learn my first programming language, Basic.

I started using Linux by the time of Jaunty Jackalope release, in 2009, and since then I've tried several other Linux distributions such as Arch Linux, CentOS and Debian, but I always came back, one way or the other, to the one I feel more comfortable with, which is Ubuntu.
