I like programming in Perl and C. I know Java and PHP too (I'm a MediaWiki developer), but I can't really say I like them. I keep meaning to learn Python some day, but never seem to get around to it.
I'm working on a Ph.D. in biomathematics. I also like programming puzzles and cryptography.
Please consider any (original) code I post to Stack Overflow (and other Stack Exchange sites) to be released under CC-Zero unless stated otherwise. You may do whatever you want with it and don't have to credit me in any way, although of course that would be nice.

What are the advantages and disadvantages between gas, liquid and solid fuel? (Pps. While Googling, I found this blog article on the Trangia 27; it's not directly relevant to the issue at hand, but I liked it too much not to include it here.) |

What are the advantages and disadvantages between gas, liquid and solid fuel? Ps. The Trangia FAQ says their spirit burner "works even at severe cold (below -10 degrees Celsius) if used together with the winter attachment" (priming pan). Actually, I'm pretty sure I've used them even in colder weather without one; a handy trick is to close the lid of the burner after filling it (it's liquid-proof) and warm it under your clothes for a while. |

What are the advantages and disadvantages between gas, liquid and solid fuel? Alcohol doesn't burn well below freezing? I think the Swedish folks who make Trangia stoves would be surprised to hear that. |

What's the UPF of a T-Shirt or jeans? Ps. It seems that Wikipedia has an article on sun protective clothing that you might want to take a look at. |
