i am currently employed at QED, which develops customized software for a variety of data-driven industries. previously i have been employed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory as a telecommunications engineer and researcher, and i have also worked part-time or as a consultant for a variety of tech companies and startups. i was formerly an electrical engineering PhD student at stanford university; for my old stanford research site, please click here.

most of this site is devoted to some of my interests, particularly riddles and mathematical puzzles. this topic consumes most of the visitor bandwidth, and almost all of the highly educational forum content. there's also some stuff on psychology, fractals, and other neat things. if you're into math and/or puzzles though, i think you'll enjoy the forum, and i invite you to join. it's an archive of discussions for thousands of puzzles at all levels of difficulty. new problems arise almost every hour, and we have members spanning all ages, countries, and professions.

btw, if you're wondering why this site is on a berkeley server, my undergraduate studies in EECS were done at berkeley. it's a big hassle to move everything due to the forum.


suggestions? typos? feedback is welcome. e-mail wwu at ocf.berkeley.edu or post to the guestbook

  1. I sent you an e-mail, but I got an error message saying your e-mail address doesn't exist.
    • You have to remove the "NO_SPAM_" prefix that I appended to all e-mail links on this site, to deter spam robots. If you were too dense to figure this out, I probably don't want to correspond with you anyways :)

  2. Are you some kind of Wu-Tang Clan freak?
    • Only like the old-school stuff.

  3. Regarding the 100 prisoners problem, can we [ rotate the bulb | make markings on the wall | break the bulb into shards | tally visitations by leaving droppings in the corner | ... ]?
    • No. (Those are all real suggestions that were sent to me.)

  4. Where is this slashdot article about your riddles site?
