Comment on Knuth's 'Earthshaking Announcement' due tomorrowparentComments−ja2716yMostly joking, but it could be possible.I just can't think of anything besides P=NP (or proving P!=NP) that Knuth is likely to announce that I'd consider earth-shattering.In the end, it's likely to be a decent but not earth-shattering discovery. It better not be a TeX announcement.If he walks out, says "42" and leaves, I'm selling my copies of "The Art of Computer Programming".
