Mensagens
The Hidden Line
A line of white text on a CV, addressed to the AI that reads it. Prompt injection is real, has no clean fix, and matters most when the reader can act: what it is, who uses it, and what limits the damage.
The Dead Internet, Measured
Is the internet dying, taken over by machines that write for other machines? What can be measured: who reads the web, who writes it, who answers instead of linking, and where the people went. Essay · the web · October 2026
Mostly Machines
This blog’s counter says 336,000 views. Most of them were not people. What three tools show, why they disagree, how to count better, and my own estimate of how many humans actually read here. Essay · this blog · October 2026

A Rua
Os governos decidiram, mas a rua empurrou. Doze greves gerais, manifestações de centenas de milhares, greves de setor que pararam o país e, agora como em 1974, a casa outra vez no centro do protesto.
Fora do Arco
Os governos foram sempre do PS ou do PSD. Mas o parlamento mudou: o PCP que encolheu, o PRD que durou dois anos, o Bloco que subiu e caiu, e o Chega, que em seis anos passou de um deputado a sessenta.
Lá Fora
Os 31 governos portugueses desde 1974 decidiram muito, mas quase sempre dentro de marés que vinham de fora: a Guerra Fria, o petróleo, a Europa, o euro, a China, as crises e o BCE.

Desde o 25 de Abril, Portugal teve 31 governos e 17 primeiros-ministros. Este é o percurso de cada um: o país que encontraram, o que fizeram, o que deixaram e porque ficaram lembrados.
