Homepage of simendsjo

I’m a self taught programmer currently working as a software consultant. My nickname is simendsjo most places online, and you can reach me using one of the links below. I also use sijo in places where simendsjo is tediously long, e.g. in programming languages without namespaces where it’s repeated a lot.
