About
Welcome to the fantastic “about” page, that remained blank for 6 month :D.
Here is a brief description of me.
I’m a human being of 34 years old, well…still 33 but the 18 of august I’ll reach the big age of 34 (ouch…the time pass to quickly).
I was born and live in Italy, in a small village called Sassoferrato, now that you know where I live, if you pass nearby you can come to visit me ;).
I was a computer enthusiast, since my first computer, a commodore Vic20. With the Vic20 I discovered the joy of programming, It were the 80ies, I have 3.5 KB of memory for my programs, and It seemed to me that computers will really change my life.
After the Vic20 I passed through 80×86, 80×486DX, Pentium 150, AMD K6-2 233, Pentium II 450, Athlon XP2100+, core2 T2200 and finally my core2 8400. It is fantastic how the technology changed in these 22 years, I can still remember when 8 mb of ram were really a huge amount of ram…now I have 2 GB, and it is not so much.
I begin programming in Vic20 BASIC, then BASIC80, then I studied Pascal, Fortran ( a little bit), a little bit of prolog and Cobol. When I went to university I began study C and C++ and began to have great interest in Computer Graphics. You can find some of my works in www.nablasoft.com , but most of them are in Italian (sorry guys
). I programmed Playstation2 with the Linux kit (you can find a tutorial here) and I was fanatic of Assembly Language. I’m an electronic engineer with specialization in MicroElectronics, so it is natural that I love low level languages even if I did not write a single line of assembly code for the last years.
In the last years I worked as Independend Consultant in Italy, mainly for the .NET Framework, I developed both windows applications and web applications, and I found a great passion for the architecture of software and begin interesting of: pattern, ORM, IoC, etc.
I have an italian blog at http://blogs.ugidotnet.org/rgm, I started blogging really late in my life, and after a brief blogging in italian language I decided to open a English blog, to reach a broader audience and moreover to improve my skills with english language (that I do not know so well
).
You can reach me at msn (alkampfer [ at ] nablasoft[ dot ] com) even if I prefer skype (nick: alkampferaok)
Alk.
