Personal info
Welcome

Hello visitor, allow me to introduce myself: the name is Sven Maerivoet, a computer scientist. I welcome you to my small corner on the Internet; so go ahead, look around, and indulge yourself in my digital personality. Some things worth checking out are who I am, photo galleries, some of my books, music, and movies, my past academic research, my daily work, some of my interviews, my youth movement, things that kindle my laughter, and much more.

It is practically impossible to teach good programming to students that have had a prior exposure to BASIC: as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration.
-- EWD 498, "How do we tell truths that might hurt?", June 1975, E.W. Dijkstra
Real Programmers never work 9 to 5. If any real programmers are around at 9 AM, it's because they were up all night.

Three o'clock in the afternoon is always just a little too late or a little too early for anything you want to do.
-- Jean-Paul Sartre
