Other other:
- Reading
- Alle oplossingen zijn al voorhanden.
- I go by the names: “Arthur” and “Bruinen” (short for “Bruine Beer”,
from my scouts days). When addressing myself in third person, I tend to
say “Bruinen”.
- Vegetarian, preferably vegan, I enjoy cooking. More
than 25000 pigs and almost a million chickens are killed each
day in Belgium.
- No driver’s license. Cars suck and traffic is ridiculous. I like
cycling, trains are a fair alternative.
- Last time I was in a car: 2025-10-18
- I don’t make use (I hope) of generative AI tools developed by big
tech companies. The environmental hazard (a,
b, …) is enough of a
reason. Here’s some other reasons.
In fact, I can think of no good reason to use them.
- Still living smarthpone-free, and hoping to continue to do so.
- Cat person. Dogs are OK, but for unclear reasons they tend not to
like me.
- I like to consider myself an amateur bryologist. Here are some
recent waarnemingen.
I also like mushrooms and birds and flowers and all the rest.
- Favorite programming language: Julia; interested in FP
languages (e.g. Haskell), but somehow I never get off the ground with it
for real.
- Favorite software tools: pandoc, vim, cmus, vimwiki.
- Favorite authors: John Cage, H. D. Thoreau, Gary Snyder,
Robert Ashley, Ivan Illich, Morton Feldman, Immanuel Kant, L. P. Boon
(Kappelekensbaan), Zhuangzi, W. F. Hermans, Hugo Claus, Gerard Reve,
Michel Houellebecq, Céline, Imre Kertesz, Vladimir Nabokov
(Ada), Milan Kundera, John Steinbeck (Tortilla Flat),
Patricia de Martelaere, Isabelle Stengers, Robert Rosen, Edwin Jaynes,
J. B. S. Haldane, Harold Jeffreys, Bruno de Finetti, Raymond Smullyan,
Alenka Zupancic (Ethics of the Real), Kurt Gödel
(Zeiteinteilung, Maximem), …
Some things on the internet I often find myself
recommending:
alle rechten voorbehouden (AZ 2025) – whatever that
means.
