Interview with Donald Knuth

|

Here's a very interesting (and partially controversial) interview with the man himself, Donald E. Knuth.

My, let's say rocky, relationship with the work of Donald Knuth started when I was forced to write a lengthy paper using TeX and vi on a SUN 3/60 workstation during my stint at the University of Karlsruhe.

Looking back, I don't know if I should blame TeX, vi or the crappy windowing manager on the SUN or the combination of all three factors which made this a nerve-wrecking experience.

:q!
