Depois de 1 ano e meio, apresentei em uma conferência ao vivo e de pé (a última tinha sido em março de 2020, uma semana antes do lockdown).

Essa foi a Informs, uma conferência grande na minha área (foi em outubro).

Essa semana apresentei na DSI, outra grande, mas foi virtual.

No próximo semestre voltarei a dar aulas presenciais. Aos poucos a gente chega lá.

Será que apresentarei ao vivo em algum momento no Brasil?
