Why hand out business cards when you can just tell people to Google you?

 

It's a-me!

Things I am
26-year-old technology geek from Helsinki, Finland
Student at the University of Helsinki, CS
Consultant at Avanade
Certified MCPD Enterprise Application Developer
640+ key presses/min (also my favourite pick-up line)
Kind of Jack of all IT trades, even master of some

Some of the things I like in a pseudorandom order
Delivery & aiming for performance, obsessions, tackling all challenges, trolling & argumenting, business agility, finger pointing with continuous improvement instead of blaming, non-malicious hacking, brute force (see Ken Thompson) as last resort, C# & .NET, Cloud computing, CSS hacks, jQuery, Java, Linux servers, typography, the Reality Distortion Field of Steve Jobs, my iPhone(s), multi-threading something completely unnecessarily, good music, good wines, Jaguars, Xbox & Wii, dark humour & sarcasm and finally, turning every discussion about randomness into a discussion about how computers cannot reach true entropy without external assistance. All this is obviously for SEO, which I also like - it's kind of manipulation of a given system without fully knowing the set of rules it's operating by. Turns me on, you know?

If you're by any chance looking for MonSD, try here. You'd be amazed by how much e-mails I still receive about a software that's now over ten years old. Oh, did I mention how it runs perfectly on Windows 7 x64? Skills, man. Skills. </modesty>
