I would definitely frame it. I framed an email from Norvig and a note from Dijkstra. Get joy from small things.
- aryonoco 3y agoI once emailed Dijkstra. I was 14, it was the mid 90s, and I had just connected to the real internet a few months ago. I had just come across his name as a prominent computer scientist. I wanted to be one just like him, so I asked him what I should do. He replied. it was 3 full paragraphs. He told me to study algorithms and to learn python. You're right. I absolutely should frame it.
- dekhn 3y agoI have a blog post by Norvig where he gently chides me for wasting enormous amounts of CPU trying to find a counterexample to the Beale Conjecture. Not exactly frameable, and not exactly something to be proud of, but I got a chuckle nonetheless.
