Why Knuth stopped using email
- iopuy 16y agoSame reason I quit using email.
- variety 16y agoWhat is greatness, you ask? It is the ability of a man to stand on his own, against the whole world, against the very flow of time itself: Email is a wonderful thing for people whose role in life is to be on top of things. But not for me; my role is to be on the bottom of things. What I do takes long hours of studying and uninterruptible concentration.
- wladimir 16y agoHeh, and email was just the beginning... If he can't stand email I wonder how would he react to even more distracting things such as IM, Facebook, Twitter.
