3 During the day I am a master student of computer science at the <a href="http://uni-freiburg.de">University of Freiburg</a> in <a href="http://xkcd.com/984">Germany</a>. At <a href="http://xkcd.com/313">night</a>, I am a <a href="http://xkcd.com/378">programmer</a> creating useless <a href="personalwork.html">machines</a> for my own enjoyment.
6 In my scientific pursuits I delve into <a href="http://xkcd.com/638">artificial intelligence</a> and all its <a href="http://xkcd.com/329">challenges</a>. Along the long hard road to general artificial intelligence I make detours for solving algorithmic problems like <a href="http://xkcd.com/461">fast routing</a> in public transportation networks.
9 Before going back to <a href="http://xkcd.com/664">academia</a>, I used to develop <a href="http://xkcd.com/912">safety-critical</a> software systems for the Air Traffic Control industry at <a href="http://comsoft.aero">Comsoft</a>. You can experience my work for the industry by reading this little <a href="http://www.amazon.de/Luftraummodellierung-Abflugplanung-Optimierung-Vereinigten-Arabischen/dp/3639346203">book</a> I've written, while waiting for your flight to take off anywhere in the United Arab Emirates.
12 I enjoy <a href="http://xkcd.com/844">good code</a>, <a href="http://xkcd.com/353">good</a> <a href="http://xkcd.com/224">programming languages</a>, <a href="http://xkcd.com/193">good music</a>, <a href="http://xkcd.com/971">good books</a>, <a href="http://xkcd.com/566">good movies</a> and <a href="http://xkcd.com/435">tea</a>. I enjoy spending time with my family and my lovely girlfriend, who makes the best <a href="http://suesskeks.de">little cookies</a> in town. And games, I like playing <a href="http://xkcd.com/888">good games</a> and developing games.
