SamJansen. [Me | http://www.wand.net.nz/personDetail.php?id=211]. Member of the [WandGroup]. ex-PhD student (TCP simulation). Network researcher. Software engineer. Moved to the UK for a couple of years (worked for Intel Research and Barclays Capital). Then moved to California to work for Google.

A favourite quotation of mine about [C++] is: ''I think I've finally decided to stop worrying and love [C++]: like democracy, it's terrible but the alternatives are much worse.'' -- [Thatcher Ulrich | http://www.tulrich.com/]

I graduated WaikatoUniversity in 2004 after finishing my 4 year [BCMS] at the end of 2003. I obtained first class honours and won the Ramanujan Prize. Apparently the stream of my BCMS was "Artificial Intelligence", but that means nothing. Have finally submitted my PhD and now I can sit back and wait for it to be marked.

Something I can't stress enough: If you happen to be writing a C/C++ application on Linux:
! Use [Valgrind] for debugging. It is brilliant.

Deserves kudos for being the only non-GianPerrone to mention [PASL] on a Wiki page.
