title: About me
url: about/index.html
;;;;;
I'm a programming, free software and GNU/Linux enthusiast. I'm also a
programmer profesionally, so that works out well.
I was born in The Netherlands, live in Belgium and work for a dutch
company. I have been using GNU/Linux since 2008, having settled on
[Archlinux](https://www.archlinux.org) after trying
[Ubuntu](http://www.ubuntu.com/), [Fedora](https://getfedora.org/) and
[Zenwalk](http://zenwalk.org/). I have been using
[GNU Emacs](https://gnu.org/software/emacs/) since not long after
switching over to GNU/Linux.
## Profiles
I'm often trying out new wbesites and services on the internet.
Especially if they have something to do with code. Here are some of
them:
- I put most of my projects' code on
[github](https://github.com/ryuslash).
- I'm also occasionally active on
[gitorious](https://gitorious.org/~ryuslash).
- A few of my occasional contributions are tracked on
[Open Hub](https://www.openhub.net/accounts/ryuslash).
## Interests
Next to pure coding there are some other things that I find
interesting, mostly also relating to coding or otherwise computers.
- I am currently reading
[Art of Assembly Language, 2nd Edition](http://www.nostarch.com/assembly2.htm),
[The Web Application Hacker's Handbook](http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9781118026472.do)
and

[Lisp for the Web](https://leanpub.com/lispweb).
- I use the
[Fantasque Sans Mono](http://openfontlibrary.org/en/font/fantasque-sans-mono)
font (previously Cosmic Sans Neue Mono) for my terminal emulator and
text editor and I use
[News Cycle](http://openfontlibrary.org/en/font/news-cycle) for all
the non-code text on this website. Other fonts I've used or tried
