If he knows all there is to know about computers, perhaps he can tell us whether P = NP.

- vinceguidry 13y agoMost computer scientists feel that P != NP and it's just a matter of figuring out a way to prove it.
- m0th87 13y agoThen it's a good thing computer science isn't driven by feelings.
- vinceguidry 13y agoYou'd be surprised by how much of it (mathematics) is. You obviously can't prove anything with gut feeling, but you can sure find things to prove with it.
- andrewflnr 13y agoIt is possible for something to be unknown and still boring, not "magical" or "intriguing".
- Tichy 13y agoPeople have personal preferences, I suppose. But the approach to kill the magic seems weird - I'd expect things to become more magical the more I learn about them.
