I really liked the summary of the article for Austrian Econ. I've been strongly considering how the work of Dijkstra on the Traveling Salesman Problem seems very similar in thought to the views of the Austrian School has on concepts like the price mechanism and entrepreneurship. It's not surprising at least why me and this fellow seem to find strong parallels in Computer Science and the Austrian School (and even Evolutionary Biology).

Thanks for sharing that article. I think I'll pass it on to some of my CS friends out there ;)
