My personal website is now up at:
My website covers similar topics to this blog, but hopefully in a more "official" style. It currently hosts my report on AI and the Semantic Web that I spent the academic year 2008-2009 writing, and my essay on operads and the opetopes that I wrote for my final mathematics examination at Cambridge.
I'm hoping to add more essays and preprints to the website as I complete them, including a preprint of a paper on evolutionary pressures on uploaded humans that I am currently writing.
