Just in case you like to know, I'm currently full-time father of 2 kids, half-time Perl hacker, sort-of DJ, bicyclist, no longer dreadlocked and 33 years old

I'm also head of Vienna.pm [pm.org], maintainer of the CPANTS [perl.org] project, member of the TPF Grants Commitee [perlfoundation.org] and the YAPC Europe Foundation [yapceurope.org].

I've got stuff on CPAN [cpan.org], held various talks [domm.plix.at] and organised YAPC::Europe 2007 in Vienna [yapceurope.org].

First day(s) at 3united.com; snowboarding

[ #28574 ]

Wednesday and Friday where my first days at my new job at 3united.com (the IMO slighly dumb names is deduced from the fact that the company is a result of a merger of three smaller companies). The first day involved a lot of waiting, even though I was more lucky than some other people who started on the same day: I had my laptop with me, and thanks to DHCP I got an internet conenction quite fast, while they had to wait until 12:00 to get accounts on their machines.

Today I finally got to see some of the code I'm going to work with in future. I'm very glad it's not webstuff. But there seems to be quite a lot to refactor.

Thursday was "Schitag" which Samos school, so Samo, Josh and me (and a lot of other kids and parents) spend a nice sunny day at Semmering. Josh joined some other kids and a teacher for some faster action, while I snowboarded together with Samo (who skied) and a friend of his (and his father). Exept for the first slope, which was too steep (so that I had to carry Samo a bit (quite interesting, snowboarding down a medium-steep slope ("Rote Piste", for those who know) while carrying a six-year old with skies on his feet)) everything went well and we had a nice day.

Tomorrow we will leave for another week of skiing/snowboarding, together with 4 other families with kids in the same age as ours (we know each other from kindergarden, and 3 of them are in the same class as Samo).

Which means that I'll be offline for a week. Yay!

When I come back, I will start properly at my new job, and revive CPANTS.
