- cs02rm0 1y agoIf it makes you feel better, I'm so old I read the title and 3/4 of the original story before I realised I'd read it before.
- r0uv3n 1y agoI think this is enough of a classic to be widely known even among younger people. I'm 23 (doing math msc) and I think all the CS people that I know would instantly recognize the 500 miles title. Though I do somewhat envy the possibility of having read the article close to publication and feel in some sense part of the history when it crops up again like this.
