About Howard Yeh

In 2011/2012 I quit my job and travelled. I travelled in Asia, spending time in Thailand, China, Korea, Cambodia, Malaysia, and Singapore. Trite, but true, it had been a transformative experience.

In school I studied cognitive science. As a result, I cogitate excessively. I like philosophy. Some of my favourite badass philosophers are Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, and Hume.

I also enjoy reading history. As far as history goes, I’d take good writing over TRUTH. My favourite storytellers are Barbara Tuchman and Niall Ferguson.

I make computer do things. Ruby is my weapon of choice. I have a soft spot for Lisp. It is my first love. A few things I’ve made:

• Love letter generator
• Bootstrapping Lisp compiler for Erlang
• Facebook privacy for Chrome Extension
• Quickcheck for Ruby
• Ruby interactive shell
