Comment on An Interview with the Old Man of Floating-Point (1998)

Comments

He taught numerical analysis at Berkeley, and though he was a great guy, I think he was waay to smart to be teaching undergrads... he'd go off on examples about literally every way that things like SVD could go wrong b/c of FP quirks, or how Matlab implements thing incorrectly, etc.
