Günther Foidl

Waidring / Tyrol

🙋‍♂️ Hi there, I'm Günther, a (former, quite successful 😉) Speedskier, with a top-speed on downhill skis of 208,333 km/h -- see image below.

Speed and performance runs through my veins, and I'm addicted to push the limits (beyond imagination).
This attitude isn't limited to skiing, it extends to whole "me".

Having a scientific education* I like to play with numbers and vectors. In my day to day work I write "tools" for the energy sector (CHP-monitoring and -analysis), and in the free-time, besides sports, open source is a passion to me, as it opens new doors for software development.

I enjoy reviewing PRs, contributing code and issues primarily in the .NET ecosystem, amongst others to .NET Runtime, ASP .NET Core.
Mostly focused on making algorithms faster...and more efficient in general.

With GitHub Sponsors I'd ❤️ to keep on working in open source and especially in the .NET ecosystem.

I'm also one of the members of MyCSharp.de, the largest german language C#-forum.

If you'd like to contact me for consultancy or to look into specific issues, feel free to mention @gfoidl or send an email to gh-gue [at] korporal.at.

You enjoy my work and want to support it.

I love cycling, it gives me a fresh head, and a healthy mind lives in a healthy body.
It's a perfect opportunity to order and evaluate ideas, come back to the office and implement them.

With this sponsorship you can help me buy gear* needed for cycling 🚴🏻 to distill new ideas.
And I'll think of you while riding up the mountains 🙏🏻
