Don Knuth, now 85 years old, of <i>The Art of Computer Programming</i> fame, answers 40 interesting questions, each in exactly 280 characters. These questions are pretty fresh as far as Knuth interviews go. Also, a quote from one of his answers: “the purpose of machine learning should be insight, not results!”
