I started this blog to be a better software engineer and keep up to date with the latest practices and technologies. :neckbeard:

I started learning Java in 2017 and I read many amazing books :books: at the beginning, like Effective Java, Java 8 in Action, TCP/IP sockets in Java..., but after a year I realized that I had not spent my time wisely :disappointed: because I simply read these books without any further practice. This is when I decided to have my personal tech blog where I can materialize the content I learn outside of work. :bulb: :smiley:

“Smiling learner” that’s what comes to my mind when I think about Sergio. Sergio reported to me during my time at Gamesys as a software engineer and he demonstrated to be a brilliant team player and a very capable engineer. He tackles the hardest problems and gives always 110%. I would recommend Sergio as an excellent software engineer to any company.
