About me

I'm Henrik Nyh. I was born July 26, 1983 and live in a suburb of Stockholm, Sweden with Johanna.

I currently work as a Ruby on Rails developer at Auktionskompaniet.com, a Swedish auction house. I have a master's degree in computational linguistics, though I've found I enjoy computers and linguistics more when they're separate.

I develop in TextMate on a MacBook running OS X.

Though I enjoy reading, running and pugs, web development is my main interest. I'm particularly into user interfaces and awesome touches. I love solving small problems really well. I'm very much into automation and hate seeing a human doing a computer's job. I consider myself a pragmatic perfectionist.

You can reach me by e-mail or Jabber at henrik@nyh.se or on Twitter as @henrik.

I also have a tumblelog and accounts on GitHub, Flickr, Delicious and Last.fm. My Delicious-powered wishlist is at delishlist.com/malesca.

This blog

This blog is all static files, generated by my fork of Jekyll, with Disqus for comments.

As for the name, I simply like pugs and automation. Oh, and "pug" sounds vaguely like "blog".
