A story that I was determined to hear from the source was the legendary quicksort 'wager'. The story goes that Tony told his boss at Elliott Brothers Ltd that he knew a faster sorting algorithm than the one that he had just implemented for the company. He was told 'I bet you sixpence you don't!'. Lo and behold, quicksort WAS faster. I asked Tony to tell this story pretty much every time we met, because I enjoyed it so much and it always put a smile on both of our faces. To his credit, Tony never tired of telling me this story 'right from the top'. I had hoped to visit again in the past year and record him telling it so that there was a record, but unfortunately this did not happen. However, I discover that it is indeed recorded elsewhere. One detail I might be able to add is that I asked Tony if indeed the wager was paid out or if it had merely been a figure of speech. He confirmed that indeed he WAS paid the wager (!). A detail of this story that I find particularly reflective of Tony's humble personality is that he went ahead and implemented the slower algorithm he was asked to, while he believed quicksort to be faster, and before chiming in with this belief. It speaks to a professionalism that Tony always carried.

Jeffrey Epstein drafted text for a Microsoft 8-K SEC disclosure. He negotiated the exit package of Steven Sinofsky, former president of Windows, for a $1 million fee. He monitored Bill Gates’ marriage and provided gifts and resources to a woman Gates had a relationship with. This Fortune investigation by Eva Roytburg shows how the convicted sex offender bore his way into Gates’ inner circle—a tactic Epstein also employed to cozy up to other powerful figures, like Elon Musk.。新收录的资料是该领域的重要参考
