Welcome to my new blog!

After almost 4 years of blogging at blog.misto.ch, I needed a change. The posting frequency constantly dropped and I’ve picked up twitter to post shorter messages, and most of the serious work I did ended up on InfoQ.

So, why even bother blogging anymore? Well, I’ll soon start my masters project and I want to have a platform to communicate about it1. I also feel (or rather hope) that this might interest a broader audience, thus the switch over to english and – in the wake of all these changes – also a fresh design23.

And now, some rules for this blog:

  1. Comments are to be written in English or they’ll get deleted.
  2. You may criticize my English (I’m all for improving my skills), but please only if you’re really sure and can back up your claim.
  3. Subscribe to the feed!
  1. If you’re curious, and as you’ve probably already guessed, I’ll bring automated refactoring support to Scala! But more on that in the following days. ↩
  2. That, as I just realized today, also matches the color scheme of our bathroom. ↩
  3. Aren’t these footnotes pretty? ↩
