My name is Claus Dahl, I am mathematician by training (M.S. from University of Copenhagen) and a software developer by trade. I live and work in Copenhagen, Denmark. I'm 40.
I used to work for Ascio Technologies. Ascio develops online services, web services and web applications for the domain name industry. Before that I was a software developer at SimCorp, where I worked on a derivatives pricing library. In terms of skillset I have worked, professionally, mainly in C, C++ and Delphi but also in perl, Java and .NET, obviously integrating SQL (primarily MS SQL Server) into the mix as well as the occasional bash script. I usually think in OO terms before anything else. Along the way I have acquired a working knowledge (of variable quality, from fair to good) of the usual acronym soup of things, including but not totalling COM, HTTP, HTML, SMTP, DNS, SSL, XML, WSDL, SOAP, REST, XML-RPC, WDDX, EPP, RRP...
At home I mainly hack perl, although I've been meaning to switch allegiance to ruby/python/lisp/haskell/ocaml/... for years.
Life
The weblog is a better description of what I care about than anything I could write here. There's a technical side-blog also. I strongly appreciate being an amateur in tons of fields. Wilful amateurism means I have the luxury of only caring about the good bits. I don't answer to any higher authority wrt. all the boring stuff you need to become a well-rounded professional. The payback is that I don't have to invest so much in each topic. I like to know a lot of things about a few things, something about some things, and a few things about a lot of things.Work
I am currently self employed, mainly busy with Imity, a really funky experiment in mobile social interaction. This is what I look like on Imity.I used to work for Ascio Technologies.
