The basics
I’ve never been able to properly describe myself so I will just quote my GitHub about me:
Diving into big data, programming languages and improving productivity and workflow. Formerly part-time full-stack Minecraft Server/Network developer.
Sometimes I feel like a functional programming language. I really vibe with lazy evaluation. My pet peeve is wasting time/effort/productivity.
I currently live in the Netherlands. I speak both German and English fluently, maar mijn nederlands is heel slecht.
My goal
The goal of this blog is to explore issues that are facing me as a person and software developer. Ultimately, I want to talk about my experiences in developing tools for the greater good of consumers and developers. However, this blog will probably also feature quite a lot of interesting problems I encountered and how I solved them.
Languages
Over the years, I’ve picked up quite a lot of programming languages. Here’s a somewhat comprehensive list of the languages and technologies I’ve played around with. By no means am I fluent/proficient in all of these (at the same time). However, I have solved problems in them. Should I need to, I will have no problem picking them up again.
