Richard Feynman and The Connection Machine
- owinebarger 17y agoExcellent, excellent essay. There's even something for people seeking money (but you should read it even if you aren't): This was a typical Richard Feynman explanation. On the one hand, it infuriated the experts who had worked on the problem because it neglected to even mention all of the clever problems that they had solved. On the other hand, it delighted the listeners since they could walk away from it with a real understanding of the phenomenon and how it was connected to physical reality.
