It's called PROcrastination because it's not for amateurs.
It takes practice and expertise to perfect.

Who am I?

My name is Pablo, I'm currently a PhD student in the SEN research group of the COMELEC department at the LTCI lab of the CNRS and Telecom ParisTech. I'm working with Sylvain Guilley and Jean-Luc Danger on formal software methods against side-channel attacks.

My PhD is funded by the ÉDITE which is a doctoral school of the UPMC university. I'm also teaching at Polytech'UPMC.

Before that I was studying at the Computer Science department of the École normale supérieure de la rue d'Ulm, where I graduated from the Parisian Master of Research in Computer Science.

Before I entered Normale Sup', I've been studying "Mathematics and Computer Science" for two years at Luminy's Faculty for Sciences, which is a part of the University of the Mediterranean.

Fields in computer science that interest me are programming languages, information security, logic, and to a lesser extent, operating systems and networks.

I value hacker ethic very highly. I'm a strong supporter of free software and free culture ("free" as in "freedom"). This is why I'm a member of the Free Software Foundation and the April. My personal computer run Debian GNU/Linux as its operating system.

I also value hip hop culture a lot. I love words, language, figures of speech, and constrained writing. I listen to a lot of French rap because I believe that many of the best poets and language technicians call themselves MCs nowadays. I also enjoy writing under the freedom of chosen constraints.

My favorite books are Do It! by Jerry Rubin, The Hacker Crackdown by Bruce Sterling, The Cuckoo's Egg by Cliff Stole, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy of five books by Douglas Adams, the Le Génie des Alpages comics series by F'murr, the Blaise, le poussin masqué child book series by Claude Ponti. It's not related but I also watch a lot of TV shows.

I love absurd stuff, so much that I co-founded the club Inutile with Antoine Amarilli. It is an organisation dedicated to "the study, promotion and implementation of non-trivial forms of action that achieve no result" (see the rules of the Club, in French).

You can contact me by email at "r at uzy.me" or by instant messaging using XMPP (Jabber / GTalk) at "p4bl0 at member.fsf.org". I also have a work email: "rauzy at enst.fr". And you can even send me paper emails at the following non RFC 3696 compliant address: "Pablo Rauzy, 34 rue Maurice Arnoux, 92120 Montrouge, France", if you are this kind of hipster. Oh, and this is what I look like. GPG public key: AFC852D2.

Shining sun for the smile
Some music for the vibe
Loads of love for my tribe
A hammock for lifestyle
