Óscar Pereira

Programmer, hacker (of computers and beyond). Wants to be a surfer when he grows up. Likes asking “why?” or “how?”, and thinking about it. «a dull mind is a dead one» –yours truly. Also goes by the handle of gauthma. It sometimes morphs into this: ओस्चर् पेरेइर (if you see gibberish instead of nice Sanskrit characters, you need to fix your browser/system to support UTF-8).

Contact Info

Preferred method is email to oscar at my domain dot org. Response time "tends to be an exponential function of message length". (in the words quoted by Frank Stajano). Ideally, emails I get will have only plain text, relevant links and—if really necessary—attachments in open formats.

Caveat Lector: Unless there is a previous arrangement, I will not read attachments in proprietary formats, viz. MS Word and the ilk, and here is why. Also, HTML mail will usually end up in the spam bin—not oft-inspected.

Unless under specific circumstances, I am likely to ignore unencrypted email. Why? here. My PGP key’s fingerprint (also sent in custom headers of signed mail) is:
