Helsinki isn't all that bad. It's a very nice city, and it's cold really only in wintertime.

I think, fundamentally, open source does tend to be more stable software. It's the right way to do things.

If you start doing things because you hate others and want to screw them over, the end result is bad.

I'm perfectly happy complaining, because it's cathartic, and I'm perfectly happy arguing with people on the Internet because arguing is my favourite pastime - not programming.

Backups are for wimps. Real men upload their data to an FTP site and have everyone else mirror it.

Every once in a while an issue comes up where I have to make a statement. I can't totally avoid all political issues, but I try my best to minimize them. When I do make a statement, I try to be fairly neutral.

I seldom get self-righteous, and even when I am being impolite (almost always on purpose - there's an art to insulting people, too), I tend to try to not be too serious about it. And most of the time it means that I can take criticism constructively, and sometimes just change my opinion on the fly and laugh at myself over having turned on a dime.
