This is just another site on the web. In the past it has lived under different names—and perhaps it has belonged to different owners—but at the moment its name has a weird suffix on it.
If there is anything that may distinguish this site from others, it is what I call a parallel web site (or parasite, or parablog). This means that for every page P on this site, multiple versions of P may exist, all coexisting under the same URL. Take this page as an example: refresh the page and you may get a different version of it; a version that conveys the same meaning (sometimes) but is written in a different way. You can find out more about this idea in the post Parallel Blogs. It’s a silly idea, I know.
This site is built with belbo.

I'm Marcos. To the other one, to Marcos, is to whom things happen. From Marcos I find out through the e-mail and I see his name in a list of meeting attendees, in the output of `git blame`, or in a Rundfunkbeitrag bill. I like to read books, to take walks with my wife, to go out for a run from time to time, maps, fútbol juggling, and computer programming; he shares these preferences too, but in a vain way that turns them into the attributes of an actor. Little by little, I am giving over everything to him, although I am quite aware of his perverse custom of falsifying and magnifying things (he usually talks to his colleagues using terms like SOLID, *good practices*, DDD... and I never fully understand it). I enjoy very much the act of creating something (anything) from scratch, and at work I don't practice this as much as I would like, but Marcos always insists in making these creations useful in some way... I never fully understood that either.
The About me section is paraphrasing the short story Borges y Yo.
