Hi there, I'm Géraldine Räuber.

I'm a physicist having completed my PhD as part of the Belle II collaboration. My research has taken me deep into the world of high-energy experiments, where I've worked with large datasets and complex analytical methods to study fundamental particles.

Along the way, I've developed strong programming skills and a passion for coding, which I apply to everything from data analysis to creating tools that (hopefully) solve everyday problems. Now, I'm currently a Software Developer, working with SAP technologies and programming in ABAP.

I enjoy taking on coding projects that challenge me to think critically and creatively, whether it's optimizing algorithms or exploring new applications of machine learning. I'm always looking for opportunities to learn and contribute to exciting new ideas. Feel free to take a look at my CV in English icon or in French icon.

When I'm not immersed in physics or coding, you can find me playing the flute, keeping my plants alive, or experimenting in the kitchen.

Got questions? Just hit me up at hi[at]syntaxerror.ch. Unless it's spam. Spam gets the silent treatment.

What's new


  • Do you want to see languages in numbers? - Discover how the four national languages are distributed in Switzerland.
  • Know more about what's beneath the leaves - For example, did you know peanuts grow underground?
  • Try to solve today's Sudoku - three levels to try, with the previous day's solution provided.
  • Explore SQL or BDT Tutorial - Available on GitHub, they offer a great resource to enhance and expand your knowledge.
  • Have a look at some french-written recipes - New recettes are added every now and then. A random selection has been added to give ideas when they don't come by themselves.

What's special today


  • Not all fruits and vegetables grow at the same time. For example, greengages and tomatoes are currently in season in Europe. More fruits and vegetables are listed in my project Fruits and veggies.
  • In Japan, the year is traditionally divided into 72 moments of season. The current Sekki is Shosho (tr. End of Heat) and the Kō is Tenchi hajimete samushi (tr. The heat finally relents). Check out the rest of the seasons in my blog post titled Haikus and seasons.
