Hi my name is Udo Kohlmeyer.
I've always had a passion for distributed and concurrent systems. I
started my life as a Gemstone/J user and never left the OO-DB scene
after that. Versant Object Database and Poet FastObjects are all on my
resume. I have a strong dislike towards Hibernate or any other OO-RDBS
mapping tools, due to the inefficiencies and the complete disconnect
from OO-model to roadkill-like structures RDBMSs suggest.
I have recently (last 3yrs) discovered mechanical sympathy and love it.
It's a long lost art of development that is almost lost. Love efficient
code and if permitted will spend hours trying to get every last drop of
performance out of code. Next on my list of "things to conquer" will be
reactive frameworks and how to best apply those.
