I love his timing: Donald Knuth: (Retired from Stanford) It will be solved by either 2048 or 4096. I am currently somewhat pessimistic

  > by either 2048 or 4096 It's an odd statement for a mathematician/computer scientist. It's equivalent to "by 4096", surely.

    Logically, you don't even need the first clause, since anything solved "by" the first milestone should remain and be solved "by" the second as well :p

      Yes, that's my point.
