People

This is a noncommutative webring with links to some of my friend’s pages and other people that I find interesting or inspiring. It’s loosely organized into a collection of subrings that contain a list of people tied together by some common interest or affiliation.

Also available under the “Members” section of the main site.

• Youwen Wu

  • Benevolent dictator for life (BDFL) of functor.systems recently tired of studying computer science and now devotes his time to an exploration of pure mathematics in paradise. While at Team 1280, we worked on eeXiv together, now maintained under the auspices of functor.systems.

• Warren Lin

  • Head of electrical engineering and most talented hacker at functor.systems; he bankrolls my website and indirectly maintains most of my physical infrastructure through regular repairs so I can spend more time theorizing.

• Anthony Donegan

  • The only other electrical engineer at functor.systems he developed a neural network entirely in HolyC and runs the startup incubator λ-combinator at MIT

• Arvind Venkatesh

  • Hacker by day, musician by night; ponders a wide variety of philosophical questions relating to linguistic shift, transformational music theory, and embodied robotic systems.

• Nicholas Luo

  • Theoretical computer scientist and Vulkan graphics expert; he served as head of controls architecture over at Team 1280 immediately after I left the team, during which time he brought many bleeding edge research projects to fruition.

• Colin Clark

  • Former head of SIPB, MIT ASA (that’s the club that runs all other clubs) executive, and photographer for The Tech I’m clearly missing a dozen other affiliations, but I would be remiss not to mention that he is forklift certified.
