“Computers might not find the solutions to our problems, but they would be able to do the bulk of the legwork required, assist our human minds in intuitively finding ways through the maze.” WayMindHumansProblemMightWould BeAbleFindingsComputerSolutionsHuman MindMazes Author:Tim Berners-Lee
“If you keep proving stuff that others have done, getting confidence, increasing the complexities of your solutions - for the fun of it - then one day you'll turn around and discover that nobody actually did that one! And that's the way to become a computer scientist.” IfsWayDoneTurnsFunStuffOne DayProveComputerSolutionsScientistComplexity Author:Richard P. Feynman
“In software, we rarely have meaningful requirements. Even if we do, the only measure of success that matters is whether our solution solves the customer's shifting idea of what their problem is.” IfsIdeasMatterProblemTechnologyComputerSolutionsSolveCustomersMeaningfulProgrammingSoftwareRequirementsShiftingComputer ProgrammingMeasure Of SuccessComputer Software Author:Jeff Atwood
“Eventually, we need to have computers that work differently from the way they do today and have for the past 60-plus years. We're capturing and generating increasingly massive amounts of data, but we can't make computers that keep up with it. One of the most promising solutions is to make computers that work more the way brains work.” WayNeedsYearsTodayPastBrainAmountComputerSolutionsDataMassivePlus Author:Kevin Maney
“It is possible in theory and I think true in practice that centralization could have been the optimal solution at the beginning of the computer era and now, but not in between. And it may change back again with some other technological development. Some things move in a straight line. Others move like a pendulum.” ThinkingMovingComputerSolutionsTechnological Author:Steven Pearlstein
“The personal computer was a disruptive innovation relative to the mainframe because it enabled even a poor fool like me to have a computer and use it, and it was enabled by the development of the micro processor. The micro processor made it so simple to design and build a computer that IB could throw in together in a garage. And so, you have that simplifying technology as a part of every disruptive innovation. It then becomes an innovation when the technology is embedded in a different business model that can take the simplified solution to the market in a cost-effective way.” DifferentTogetherSimplePoorTechnologyDesignFoolComputerSolutionsInnovationRelativeGarageEmbedded Author:Clayton Christensen
