Paul Graham seems to be slipping ... :)
Today I taught my last class of the quarter (Friday is the final), in which I gave a lecture introducing computer science, the whole discipline, starting with NAND gates and how you'd coax electricity to behave like boolean logic, and ending up with the P=NP question and the halting problem. I don't know whether my students cared about it, but for me it was great fun.

Paul Graham? slipping? The article is mildly amusing, but be sure to read the link at the end, to Dabblers and Blowhards, a great analysis by a painter of Paul's (non-) expertise in painting.
