Torvalds’ quote about good programmer [closed]
“Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about
data structures and their relationships.”
Who said “Twenty years ago, NP-complete meant it was impossible, now it means it’s easy?”
I don’t think that’s the exact quote, but it was something close to that. I read it maybe 10 years ago in either a blog or a book, and it was attributed to a specific computer scientist. The idea he was trying to explain was that SAT solvers are fast enough to solve most specific (and non-pathological) examples of NP-complete problems.
