Professional Change

Jorge Tavares — Sun, 20 May 2012 16:21:31 +0000

After many years in academia doing research, I’ve recently joined the software industry. I am now working at Microsoft, specifically, at their Search Technology Center in Munich. It’s an exciting and challenging work!

I will continue doing my Common Lisp explorations in my free time and talk about them in here as before (disclaimer: the views and opinions expressed on this blog are my own and not those of my employer).

A new beginning

This summer I have returned to Coimbra. Although I still had some more time at MIT, an offer was made to me that I couldn’t refuse and as such, I’ve terminated my postdoc to start a new position. The best of it is the freedom to pursue my interests and define my own line of research. In spite of this, I am still collaborating in some projects with MIT.

A bit quiet and recent changes

My online presence, specifically this blog/homepage has been quiet for the past several months. This was mostly due to my postdoc at MIT and also a little laziness I must add. Anyway, I am slowly changing this. I am making this my main site on the web and started my cleaning and organizing a little bit this blog and how to coordinate the stuff from the other places where I have a presence, like the tumblr or the books blog. There’s still a lot to do but it will fall into place one of these days. I guess a big-bang style update would be the best but I don’t think that’s going to happen. The big news is that I have my own domain now! Finally http://jorgetavares.com became free and so it’s pointing now here! As well as some of the others more famous domain terminations. One more reason to give more life to this place!
