Vorner’s random stuff

About me

• A programmer (sometimes a computer magician, working with all colours of magic, including black).
• A climber. Maybe I’ll write a post comparing Rust to climbing one day.
• I suffer from chronic lack of free time.
• Huge fan of the „Ha ha only serious“ attitude.
• And yes, self-appointed member of the Rust Evangelism Strike Force.

If you want to contact me, write me an email.

About the pages

These were thrown together quite fast (see above lack of time to know why). I also do have my personal web pages, but they are really outdated and fell into disrepair. You can have a look, if you really like a retro design. So I decided not to use them for now, before I get around to doing something with them.

This is here mostly for the technical stuff (like Rust).
