Freelance developer

I am a freelance developer (I do mainly RubyOnRails websites for a living) with a special interest in the Free Software philosophy, the GNU/Linux operating system, scripting (Python, Ruby, Javascript, Lua, ...) and functional languages (Haskell, Erlang, ...). Check my website if you want to hire me.

Favorite programming quotes

Data dominates. If you've chosen the right data structures and organized things well, the algorithms will almost always be self-evident. Data structures, not algorithms, are central to programming. Let the data guide the programming.

This is the Unix philosophy: Write programs that do one thing and do it well. Write programs to work together. Write programs to handle text streams, because that is a universal interface.

Functional programming is like describing your problem to a mathematician. Imperative programming is like giving instructions to an idiot.

Controlling complexity is the essence of computer programming.
