The result is that the same generation is in danger of growing up with 170 terabytes of knowledge and information, but not more than a few bits of wisdom.

Technology fuels economy, unfortunately in today’s world it’s the fuel that drags economy

New capabilities emerge just by virtue of having smart people with access to state-of-the-art technology.

At X-Feer, we teach how to solve problems not how to write a code because that’s the most important thing in coding.

Il me semble qu’ils confondent but et moyen ceux qui s’effraient par trop de nos progrès techniques. Quiconque lutte dans l’unique espoir de biens matériels, en effet, ne récolte rien qui vaille de vivre. Mais...

New Rule: You can’t force the ATM to do something it doesn’t want to do. Excuse me, lady in front of me at the Citibank ATM, but you’ve been standing there punching buttons for ten...

We’ve arranged a civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster.

Encryption…is a powerful defensive weapon for free people. It offers a technical guarantee of privacy, regardless of who is running the government… It’s hard to think of a more powerful, less dangerous tool for liberty.

I won’t say that all senior citizens who can’t master technology should be publicly flogged, but if we made an example of one or two, it might give the others incentive to try harder.

The problem of architecture as I see it is the problem of all art – the elimination of the human element from the consideration of the form.

I’ve heard it said that technology makes a good person better, and it makes a bad person worse. That’s okay with me. I say we keep building new versions of ourselves, keep exploring the unknown,...

It’s not technology that limits us. We’re the limitation. Our technology is an expression of our intelligence and creativity, so the limitations of our technology are a reflection of our own limitations. We can’t fundamentally...

Technology, of course, is not the only distraction.

It makes sense for Chinese companies to tie up with global companies to form an alliance in environmentally-friendly technology, given that the Chinese auto market will continue to grow and the government is getting concerned...

Nature is cheaper than therapy.

…while the stony bones of the world tore past and the air grew dark and howling. The last thing he saw as the gulley became a torrent of dust and rock was the Jeep, plucked...

Investors shouldn’t run away from the techs. The long-term fundamentals for technology stocks are super. So the strategy is to work into the area.

This condemnation of technology is ingratitude, that’s what it is. Blind alley, though. If someone’s ungrateful and you tell him he’s ungrateful, okay, you’ve called him a name. You haven’t solved anything.

I have a dream, there will be critical point in the future,where economics and technology will negate each other.

We have too many cellphones. We’ve got too many internets. We have got to get rid of those machines. We have too many machines now.

Just as war is too important to leave it to the generals, science and technology are too important to leave in the hands of the experts.

We believe that information is an enlightening agent, but I can assure you it is not. We consume information, but we can’t read. We forgot how to sit down and engage the dense layers of...

The space is appropriately shoe-boxy and all the shelves are there. I’ve set them up with a coordinate system, so my program can find aisle 3, shelf 13 all by itself. Simulated light from the...

Our technology can pick out bad traffic but still allow things like online banking to occur.

For thousands of years, it had been nature–and its supposed creator–that had had a monopoly on awe. It had been the icecaps, the deserts, the volcanoes and the glaciers that had given us a sense...

Technology is dominated by two types of people: those who understand what they do not manage and those who manage what they do not understand.

Code is not like other how-computers-work books. It doesn’t have big color illustrations of disk drives with arrows showing how the data sweeps into the computer. Code has no drawings of trains carrying a cargo...

The easiest way to get old is to be technologically behind…

I would like to have time to confirm the validity of the technology.

The invention of the mechanical clock was one of a number of major advances that turned Europe from a weak, peripheral, highly vulnerable outpost of Mediterranean civilization into a hegemonic aggressor.

The medievalist has the capacity, and the desire, to harmonize. He believes the planets sing in harmony; why cannot technology also sing?

The game industry is cyclical. So, what happens every four or five years, they have a new generation of technology, a new generation of home devices that you can plug into the television and also...

Dr. Turing of Cambridge says that the soul is an illusion and that all that defines us as human beings can be reduced to a series of mechanical operations.

Time for reflection and interaction is a casualty of the digital age, and one of the primary goals of higher education should be to reclaim this time.

By the 1980’s and 1990’s, Moore’s Law had emerged as the underlying assumption that governed almost everything in the Valley, from technology to business, education, and even culture. The “law” said the number of transistors...
