Many things in life can be easily summed up by asking yourself three simple questions. These are known as the Who, Why and What

!Who is he
[GerwinVanDeSteeg], the guy slowly going mad in the corner. (Altho some might claim you can't go something you already are)
-A rather spontaneous kinda guy. Hopefully graduating
from [WaikatoUniversity] this year
with a degree in [ComputerTechnology] and going
on to greener pastures. Being a student bum isn't all that great
.
+Graduated
from [WaikatoUniversity] with a degree in [ComputerTechnology] and gone
on to greener pastures.
-Used to work for a software development company as senior software engineer, system/network administrator, tech support, and odd guy in the corner who'll help you if you ask him nicely
.
-That was until the company ceased to exist, much to my annoyance.
-
-Programming uselessly simple utilities to make my life as a coder and a dungeons & dragons guy easier.
-
-Programs will get writen in a plethora of languages, usually whichever is closest to hand or the one I happen to be playing with
at that point in time.
-
-Usually it'll be one of
the following languages
-*
[C]
-*
[C++]
-* [AssemblyLanguage
] , either AT&T
or Intel formats for the x86 processor series
-* [Perl]
-* [Befunge]
-* [Brainf*ck]
-* [BASIC]
-* [VisualBasic]
+Occasionally writes useless programs that do stuff
. Language preferences
at the moment are [PHP],
[C]/
[C++], or if he can get away with it, a simple bash(1) script.
!Why is he here
-I think it was just plain good luck on my part that my parents Immigrated
here and that I got to tag along, or the massive amount of incredibly bad luck accumulated in the [Waikato] by it's residents.

!What's for lunch
Well.. Anything goes really
-
!Other
-* What [GerwinVanDeSteeg] doesn't know about
x86 [AssemblyLanguage] programming probably isn't worth knowing.
-* Occasionally surprises himself by writing flawless and bug-less code using many different forms of pointers, structures, unions, casts, and address references
.
+* x86 [AssemblyLanguage] is a good hobby for anyone
.
* Can usually be found somewhere on [IRC], on one of [UnderNet]'s servers, going by the name TIK_.
-
!Pet Hates
-* People who cannot spell properly
, form grammatically correct sentences
, or use some form of l33t sp34k
. Using excessive punctuation is a different matter
however.
-* People who do not use apropriate white space to make code easy to read instead of stringing things together, the exception to this is any obfuscated program or Perl program
.
-
+* Incredibly bad spelling
, l33t sp34k
, or abbreviated SMS messages
. Using excessive punctuation is perfectly acceptable
however.
+* People who do not use apropriate white space to make code easy to read instead of stringing things together.
!Likes and Hobbies
-* [SCUBADiving]
-* Writing useless
and simple programs
-* Teaching guff
-* [RolePlayingGames], any kind really
+* [SCUBADiving] and instruction of said sport.
+* Playing with linux projects mostly regarding LDAP, email (Exim, Sendmail), SpamAssassin, PHP, MySQL, Snort, ACID, BASE,
and other related things.
+* WorldOfWarcraft
!Todo list thingamy
-* Write some sort of usefull program one of
these days
-* Multi-lingual internationalized compiler
+* Get a decent internet connection, 2400 baud just doesn't quite do anymore
these days. Although it is enough for [IRC][1].
+* Find free time
+* Get organised
* An operating system
-* A usefull programming language
-* Some interesting scripting language
for game data
-* Get organised
-* Move away from this hole in
the ground. This hole happens to be in the middle
of nowhere
to some
, or halfway to everywhere when talking about the [NorthIsland] of [NewZealand]
-* Get
a decent internet connection
, 2400 baud just doesn't quite do anymore these days
. Although it is enough
for [IRC
].
-
+* A decent
usefull linux distro
for the purpose
of; providing a quick method of deploying a small
to medium enterprise
, server for
a singular purpose such as: email, file serving
, squid
. With a nice gui (web based)
for easy of control and management. All designed from two security models in mind. Least privilege where anything not specifically allowed is explicitely denied, and the other where anything not expressely forbidden is allowed
