- thechao 5y agoAs a grad student, I was willing to take boutique courses from any of the PLT folk in the larger group (including Bjarne & Gaby). Most of the students were terrified of Bjarne, but I'd sit front-and-center and pepper him with questions. Eventually it got to the point that when I'd show up to lecture he'd shine his (green) laser pointer at me until I moved back & off center. Bjarne's a genuinely good guy, and very smart; I think the "interview" is fun, but it doesn't really sound anything like him.
