Commenting on a post by Marcelo Khoury about his interview with me on vibe coding, university and adventures.
I really like this answer, and leaving Pipefy has to do with it, even though I love the product and the people there! :)
‘Being able to create product as “art”. What I mean is creating products that don’t need to be viable, and doing it just because I believe they need to exist in the world. You know the phrase “I’m going to live off my art”? Well, it’s a bit like that. I don’t think it’s my mission, but it’s a kind of freedom I’d like to have more of one day.
About mission… it’s hard. My career has always been a “drunkard’s walk” from probability. A sequence of random steps. And I like that. I like this randomness and unpredictability. I like being an insignificant point in space-time. My personal mission is wanting to have more free time for adventures and studies, and I’ll do things that allow me that, of course, within this delightful randomness of life.’

I translated it into English with the help of AI (Claude): it let me bring my LinkedIn posts to people who don’t read Portuguese without rewriting each one from scratch. I reviewed the translation to keep my original meaning and tone.
