I am a Finnish man in my late twenties. I am almost about to graduate from University - only I'm too lazy to begin my Master's Thesis. In the meantime, I have a job as a computer programmer.

As well as Finnish culture, I like Star Trek and Transformers, which should be obvious from the contributions I've made.

There might be more to come later.

My growth rate model for the Wikipedia:Two-million pool and Wikipedia:Five-million pool:

  • s0 = 500000, t0 = March 17, 2005 20:55 UTC
  • s1 = 666666, t1 = August 4, 2005 06:45 UTC
  • s2 = current number of articles, t2 = current date
  • v_1 = \frac{s_1 - s_0}{t_1 - t_0} = 1195.512 articles/day, v_2 = \frac{s_2 - s_1}{t_2 - t_1}
  • a = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{t_2 - t_1}
  • s = two million or five million
  • t = t_0 + \frac{-v_1 + \sqrt{v_1^2 + 2as}}{a} = estimated time of reaching article count

I live here.
More times than I can count. With my family, on class trips, visiting people I know from the Internet...
Twice, both times with my family, to the Troms county in the north.
More times than I can count. With my family, on class trips, with my former job...
Once, on a student trip.
Maybe five or six times? Mostly with my family, but the last two trips were to CeBIT and BoundCon.
Three times, every time with my family.
Once, with my family. We were there only a couple of hours, mainly to eat lunch.
Twice, first with my family, when I was very small, second to the World Bodypainting Festival.
Once, on a class trip.
Maybe three or four times, with my family, when I was a child.
Three times, first on a class trip, the other times on my own. The last trip was to BotCon Europe.
Once, with my family, when I was a child. This is the only time I've been outside Europe.

[edit] People I've nominated for adminship

I do seem to (mostly) have a way of picking my candidates, don't I? =)

[edit] Random observations

[edit] ISO 5775

Now this is something new - I almost put a copyvio tag on an article that was created by its original copyright holder. Pretty embarrassing, isn't it?

[edit] My old schoolmate

I just found an article about one of my former schoolmates. All this time I had no idea he had become so famous.

[edit] Heard in a public sauna from a woman

"When talking to a man, it's good to say the word "naked" every once in a while."
