const questions = [{
'q': 'How old are you?',
'a': "I'm " + getAge() + " years old. This automatically updates now, too, so I won't ever forget to update it again!"
},
{
'q': 'Where are you from?',
'a': "I am from Neuss, Germany and I'm currently living and going to university in Aachen, Germany."
},
{
'q': 'Why are you called Ellpeck?',
'a': "Well, it actually isn't as interesting of a story as some of you might hope. Long story short, when I was little (and was, apparently, very bad at English), I decided to make a YouTube channel called \"LetsPlayEveryGames.\" Shortly after, I also made a Minecraft account that I was going to call the same thing. At the time, though, there was a limit for how many characters your name could have, and so I opted for calling myself \"LPEG\" instead. When a friend of mine came along and started trying to pronounce that name, instead of saying each individual letter on its own, he started pronouncing it like a word: Ell-Peg. ...Ellpeck. I liked that pronounciation and so I stuck with the name."

{
'q': "What's your gender?",
'a': "I'm (cis) male."

{
'q': 'What languages do you speak?',
'a': 'German, English, Java, JavaScript, C# and a bit of C, HTML and CSS.'
},
{
'q': 'What\'s your favorite programming language?',
'a': 'It varies between C# and Java, based on the language that I currently use more.'
},
{
'q': "What's your job/occupation?",
'a': "I'm currently studying Computer Science at the <a href=\"https://www.rwth-aachen.de/\">RWTH Aachen</a>. I don't have a job on the side or anything, though."
},
{
'q': 'Are you for hire?',
'a': 'Technically yes. If you\'re serious about an offer, you can send me an email. There\'s a link above.'
},
{
'q': 'What do you use to code?',
'a': "For Java, I use IntelliJ IDEA. For C#, I use JetBrains Rider. For most of my other projects, which are usually rather small, I use Visual Studio Code, which is awesome, by the way."
},
{
'q': 'How did you make this site?',
'a': 'I made this page using <a href="https://getbootstrap.com/">Bootstrap</a>. The content is dynamically generated using JavaScript based on a bunch of JSON data. If you\'re curious about the (probably pretty messy) code, then you can check out the <a href="https://github.com/Ellpeck/Web">GitHub repository</a>.'
},
{
"q": "What's your favorite season?",
"a": "Whatever the current one isn't, honestly. Typical German."
},
{
'q': 'Tabs or spaces?',
'a': "Spaces are the only true choice, because they don't have different sizes in different display locations."
},

'q': 'What\'s the deal with life?',
'a': 'Man, if I knew.'
},
