Resiliency vs Consistency: Racing multiple Data Sources#

20/10/2025#

I was a guest speaker for LisboaJs’ first anniversary! 🎉

In this, my first recorded technical talk, I got to speak about the product that we are building at Cloudflare - Workers KV - which is a distributed database to be used in your Cloudflare Workers application.

More on Cloudflare Workers: https://workers.cloudflare.com/

More on Workers KV: https://developers.cloudflare.com/kv/ Note that we are building technical tools for technical people, so the talk itself might be a bit too technical if you have no prior knowledge of Workers, distributed systems or Javascript. If you know a minimum of any of these things, you’ll be able to follow this talk.

Diversity and Inclusion in the tech world#

27/06/2024#

I was a guest in an event for Career Management in Tech where I spoke about the importance of diversity and inclusion in the workplace, as a representative of As Raparigas do Código.

I believe that diversity is important for innovation and to achieve the best solutions. However, we do not currently have enough women in tech to have a 50/50 distribution of men and women in these roles. Because of that, we strive to have more girls interested in the area and we want to make sure that the women (and the other tech minorities) that are already in here feel included and have their voices heard. Being empathetic, respectful and inclusive to your coworkers is much more important than hitting quotas. This last part will come eventually, if the overall environment is pleasant and accepting.

You can read the summary of the discussion and listen to the whole thing here (in Portuguese).
