Welcome to yph's webpage. One might call this self indulgent crap, and one would probably be pretty on target.

Who is yph, anyway?
I'm the guy in the picture at right. I don't usually carry a wooden sword -- that was borrowed from my friend Lucas Kovar when we were in Los Alamos for the summer of 1999. I may someday scan in a more recent picture, but that first requires having such a picture.
If you want to know more, you can always read my (short) bio.
I've been remiss in my collection of good quotes since I finished school. I suppose it's harder to quote folks when a large amount of my interaction is no longer electronic and therefore fully logged.

What does yph do?
I spent five and a half years at Stanford University studying computer science, and they gave me two fancy pieces of paper to prove it. I didn't actually get the MS until a few years after I left, primarily because I was a slacker in completing the paperwork, and it just didn't seem to matter. After all, the degrees are just gathering dust on my shelf. When I get a real stereo I guess I have a balanced pair to support the speakers.
I've spent most of my career working in games (with a stint at a web startup and a somewhat more technical company). I'm now in Austin, TX working on server software for an upcoming MMO.
When I'm not at work, I spend a lot of time killing monsters for their treasure.

What is yph up to right now?
Check my LiveJournal, which has essentially replace my .plan file.

Me, hating as usual. In this case, the hatred is directed at Los Alamos.
