About me

I'm a PhD student in Physics at the University of British Columbia. You can email me if you so desire. Most of the work I do on the site is on Physics Wiki. It is likely to be filled up with goodies as time progresses. Feel free to contribute.

Research

Right now I'm trying to wrap my head around this AdS-CFT business.


Things on my mind


Interests

  • Physics!
  • Old books

This site

This site was entirely hand-crafted by me using PHP and Smarty. The coding was actually motivated by working on the #flipcode community site, which at the time required a wiki and a unified blog/forum user system. Since I didn't know about any mature solutions at the time (drupal now comes to mind), I rolled my own. The original forum + main page was written in PHP over a single weekend and subsequently an edifice was built over several months. As with most hastily written code maintenance and configurability was a bugger, and a massive rewrite + templatization was undertaken over another weekend. Now I mostly just add content and minor features as I need them.



Peeps!
