Here, you should see the menu. Unfortunately, your browser is too dumb.
I strongly recommend using Firefox.

Experimenting with Google authorship links...

Almost looks like I'm slowly getting the hang of actually having an up-to-date homepage... :-) I've been adding a couple of pages regarding my hacking, research projects etc. Have fun reading!

Using some preprocessor macros and creative misuse of comments, it's actually possible to use the same assembler code for gcc, Visual Studio, 32- and 64-bit architectures... O_o

Just updated our server after some months. Gentoo had a particularly funny streak there:
Error: circular dependency
dev-lang/php-5.3.5 depends on:
dev-lang/php-5.3.5

Finally managed to update my Android app Background Timelapse. I've fixed a ton of bugs and managed to test it on all major Android releases, so give it a try if you have a thing for timelapse videos.

I'm part of the program committee for Intetain 2011, the International Conference on INtelligent TEchnologies for interactive enterTAINment. (You can always find an acronym if you look hard enough. :-)

I couldn't resist playing around with Javascript to add some bells & whistles to the left-side menu. Unfortunately, that immediately opened the gates to cross-browser compatibility hell. After wasting half an afternoon trying to coax IE into actually doing something sensible with standards-compliant code, I've thrown in the towel. The site is currently broken in Internet Explorer - my suggestion is you do yourself a favour and install Firefox or Chrome.

Yes, I'm actually working on it - the site is slowly filling with content that's less than 10 years old. Also, I decided that not everything I wrote as an undergrad is still worth keeping on the web. Nevertheless, I've kept some of the more outlandish things for your entertainment... :-)

I've almost managed not to touch my homepage for a full 5 years. That includes 3.5 years of doing a PhD and another year of being a PostDoc. I guess it's about time for an update. Please stay tuned :-)
