E.W. Dijkstra

July 14th, 2004

A blogger, even before the internet as we know it existed: E.W. Dijkstra. Fun to browse through his notes.

Something that struck me as odd for a scientist like him: he had very elaborate and insightful thoughts about the industry. See for example the gap between computer science and computer industry, or all humans should be replacable. Insightful, and not without humor.

Other notes are proves of theorems I even fail to understand, let alone I would understand the solution. I'll just skip them.

I'll leave you in exploring the rest by yourself... Let me know if you find something interesting.
