ABOUT ME

Very open-minded, easy-going... and I don't like personal descriptions :-) You can read what other people said about me or, even better, meet me and discover for yourself! You might find some info about me here: http://ganix.info

PHILOSOPHY

- I'm very open-minded.
- I have a bit of a bohemian soul in a scientist mind.
- Nature's amazing. We should all take good care of our environment.
- Carpe diem!
- I don't feel the need for a doctrine to tell us what good or bad is. Empathy, which is kind of my motto, is key for discerning that.

- Some quotes I like:
"Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away."
"The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear."
"Don't learn to hack. Hack to learn!"
"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants" (Isaac Newton)
"You take the blue pill and become a proprietary partner, or you take the red pill and embrace the open source."
