Welcome to my substack
In the last few years, I have been writing long posts on my personal Facebook page in Portuguese. Many posts are pandemic related content, but not all. I also write about pure mathematics, a bit of physics, probability theory and statistics applied to clinical research. Some texts are supposed to be understandable to a fairly general audience, some are very technical (mostly for math graduate students and other mathematicians) and some are mix, having a more accessible part and a more technical one.
Unfortunately, Facebook is not the right tool for this kind of work: old posts are hard to find and it doesn't have good formatting tools. Moreover, writing only in Portuguese I reach only a very limited audience. Though automatic translation is easily available these days, the choice of language probably still keeps some readers away.
Here is the plan: I will start by posting here English translations (possibly slightly edited) of some of my favorite old Facebook posts. From time to time I also intend to post here some original content (stuff that I haven't posted before on Facebook), but I don't promise to keep any type of regular flow of posts going on. I will post something when I have something interesting to say and time to write.
