I live in Denmark. ═╬═══════╬═ ║ Jokes ║ ═╬═══════╬═ I like to create jokes. As a child I set out to write down all jokes and riddles I could come up with, and, more importantly, also decided to properly categorize them. The categories I created in 2002 were: - Garden - Work - Food - Cannibals - Books - Balls - Animals - Robbers I have made a selection of my 2002-era jokes available in translated form: (TXT) My old jokes After initial success, I decided to pause my joke categorization work and focus on other things in life. Then, in 2007, my mission continued. At this point I had learnt how to program with Active Server Pages, which enabled both for a more structured way of saving jokes and riddles as well as for a more interactive exploration of joke categories. During the five years I had also learnt how some jokes and riddles can be difficult to categorize into single categories. As such, the second iteration of my joke database would allow for each joke or riddle to have more than one category. I have also made a select few of these 2007-era jokes available in translated form: (TXT) My slightly less old jokes The third iteration of my joke database is still in development. ═╬════════════╬═ ║ Other work ║ ═╬════════════╬═ I'm also a computer scientist. By day I work as a programmer in a Danish software company. I attend BornHack every year. Can recommend!
