So I have my own blog now. Looking forward to writing again ...

Most of it will definitely be related to programming. My language of choice right now is Python, which I've been cherishing ever since I got my first job, where I applied as a Java programmer but ended up hacking Python instead. In retrospect, I'm pretty happy about how things turned out. Only recently I decided to get back to Java for a while, to have a "major" language under my belt, and boy it felt cumbersome after those pythonic years. But that's gonna be acceptable.

Still, I think it's time to try something new, and so I've been considering alternatives to my beloved reptilian language. In particular, I've grown interested in functional programming and iOS programming.

Hopefully I'll be able to speak about my favourite instrument, the guitar. I'm not sure yet what a blog post about an instrument might look like. Anyway, as I've been playing around with Garage Band lately, and I also have a piano available, there might be some experience or other that the other nerd/musician hybrids out there might appreciate hearing about.
