Perhaps one day we will have machines that can cope with approximate task descriptions but in the meantime we have to be very prissy about how we tell computers to do things.|Richard P. Feynman
Right at the start when I was about 13 or 14 I only had an Amiga 500 Plus running a bit of tracker software called OctaMED. My brother was big into his computers and when he moved up to a proper PC I took charge of the Amiga.|Calvin Harris
Juries are not computers. They are composed of human beings who evaluate evidence differently.|Alan Dershowitz
Computers rather frighten me because I never did learn to type so the whole thing seems extraordinarily complicated to me.|Charles Keating
I got into computers back in the early ’80s so it was a natural progression of learning about e-mail in the mid-’80s and getting into the Internet when it opened up in the early ’90s.|Roger McGuinn
The only thing I do on a computer is play Texas Hold ‘Em really. Obviously my cell phone is a computer. My car is a computer. I’m on computers every day without actively seeking them out.|John Hawkes
Scientists have discovered that as we age our brains act like computers with fuller and fuller hard drives. So when we’re trying to recall a fact or a word or a name it takes us longer because – to put it scientifically – our brains hold a lot of ‘stuff.’|Faith Salie
It was a huge challenge to learn digital painting well enough so that computers don’t pop into mind when one sees one.|Berkeley Breathed
I’m a very simple person. I don’t use computers.|Carrie-Anne Moss
When I got out of coaching I had taught a class at the University of California an extension class on football for fans. I was looking for tools. I was showing them films. I was going to write a textbook. Trip Hawkins came to me about making it a game for computers.|John Madden
Men and machines are good at different things. People form plans and make decisions in complicated situations. We are less good at making sense of enormous amounts of data. Computers are exactly the opposite: they excel at efficient data processing but struggle to make basic judgments that would be simple for any human.|Peter Thiel
There’s all these ways to instantly communicate – cars computers telephone and transportation – and even with all that it’s so hard to find people and have an honest communication with them.|Jason Schwartzman
People are mostly focused on defending the computers on the Internet and there’s been surprisingly little attention to defending the Internet itself as a communications medium.|W. Daniel Hillis
Today computers help us making the music. It’s really a tool.|Yael Naim
Starting early and getting girls on computers tinkering and playing with technology games and new tools is extremely important for bridging the gender divide that exists now in computer science and in technology.|Beth Simone Noveck
I have a cell phone that doesn’t behave like a phone: It behaves like a computer that makes calls. Computers are becoming an integral part of daily life. And if people don’t start designing them to be more user-friendly then an even larger part of the population is going to be left out of even more stuff.|Alan Cooper
A smartphone links patients’ bodies and doctors’ computers which in turn are connected to the Internet which in turn is connected to any smartphone anywhere. The new devices could put the management of an individual’s internal organs in the hands of every hacker online scammer and digital vandal on Earth.|Charles C. Mann
Dell fills its computers with crapware collecting fees from McAfee and other vendors to pre-install ‘trial’ versions.|Barton Gellman
It seems like everything that we see perceived in the brain before we actually use our own eyes that everything we see is coming through computers or machines and then is being input in our brain cells. So that really worries me.|Hayao Miyazaki
Everyone was saying computers were going to be the future of art; everyone had to do something in this medium. And it was almost some sort of rebellion that I wanted to do these small intimate drawings.|Marcel Dzama
Every day I absorb countless data bits through emails phone calls and articles; process the data; and transmit back new bits through more emails phone calls and articles. I don’t really know where I fit into the great scheme of things and how my bits of data connect with the bits produced by billions of other humans and computers.|Yuval Noah Harari
Equipped with cell phones beepers and handheld computers the ‘conspicuously industrious’ blur the line between home and office by working anytime anywhere.|Jo Ann Davis
Before computers telephone lines and television connect us we all share the same air the same oceans the same mountains and rivers. We are all equally responsible for protecting them.|Julia Louis-Dreyfus
The trick with computers I think is to approach old and new things with the same reverence as you would like your favourite chair and not be seduced by the constant innovation otherwise you never do anything.|Colin Greenwood
My love of computers besides being practical is very direct and visceral. I love the way things look on the screen.|Penn Jillette
I wouldn’t call myself a geek but I do sometimes teach Mommy and Daddy stuff about computers. And I do watch TV but only informative programmes like the news and documentaries.|Adora Svitak
So a more sensible thing it seemed to me was to go to Silicon Valley and be pushing on the technology companies to accelerate the use of audio and music in computers.|Thomas Dolby
In chess computers show that what we call ‘strategy’ is reducible to tactics ultimately. It only looks creative to us. They are still just glorified cash registers. This should make us feel uncomfortable whether or not we think computers will ever be good composers of music or artistic painters.|Tyler Cowen
My dad used to work at IBM so we used to get discounts on computers and stuff and I did have a ThinkPad.|Jimmy Fallon
Desktop computers – boxes inside boxes – began appearing in those cubicles in the mid-eighties electrical cords curling on the floor like so many ropes.|Jill Lepore
I am not one of the new media experts working all the time with my computers and the PowerPoints and things of that sort.|Ahmed Zewail
Our lives sometimes depend on computers performing as predicted.|Philip Emeagwali
Most computers today have built in backup software.|Barton Gellman
I call the blockchain ‘the Internet of value’ and ‘the Internet of trust.’ Because everything becomes trustless. It’s a big distributed ledger. Think of it like an Excel file that’s being maintained and updated and managed by millions of computers around the world.|Brock Pierce
Comedy has sort of been my life-long obsession. I literally obsessed over comedy. I really didn’t play sports – for me it was just comedy computers and chess club; those were my big things.|Chris Hardwick
I’ve never been much of a computer guy at least in terms of playing with computers. Actually until I was about 11 I didn’t use a computer for preparing for games at all. I was playing a bit online was using the chess club mainly. Now obviously the computer is an important tool for me preparing for my games.|Magnus Carlsen
I can write anywhere. But I don’t use a computer and I could never write on a laptop. I hate the sound of computers; it’s too dull like it’s not doing anything for you.|Elmore Leonard
Regardless of how it’s done transaction costs will continue to plummet as computers get more powerful. Low transaction costs are a wonderful thing if you’re in the transaction business. They’re wonderful for consumers too making it cheaper and easier to buy things and creating new things to buy.|Nathan Myhrvold
If we can make computers more intelligent – and I want to be careful of AI hype – and understand the world and the environment better it can make life so much better for many of us. Just as the Industrial Revolution freed up a lot of humanity from physical drudgery I think AI has the potential to free up humanity from a lot of the mental drudgery.|Andrew Ng
Given the volume of PC sales and the way McAfee runs its operation I imagine there must be thousands of phantom subscribers – folks who signed up once upon a time and left the software behind two or three computers ago.|Barton Gellman
I took computers in high school. I would do all my own programming but I didn’t see the future of computers for anything other than data processing. Who was going to use a computer for communications?|Craig Hatkoff
AIM was so quaint it organized users around ‘buddy lists.’ In a time before smartphones AIM was powerful and intoxicating a way for a generation that once had called people on the phone to communicate in quick bursts from their computers.|Adam Lashinsky
When I was growing up I had lots of smart classmates that were girls but none of us were really pushed into math or computers or anything like that. Girls took AP history and AP English and AP European history. And boys took calculus and physics.|Aileen Lee
I do like to get away from technology. I still read a lot. Having said that most of my reading is on computers or a Kindle or an iPad.|Martin Cooper
Most people are excited about themselves. Personal genome will deliver for inexpensively something about science to which you can relate. Just like computers are becoming something to which you can relate. It should be even easier to relate to your own biology and I hope that will be one of the ways we get broader literacy in science.|George M. Church
Trump has emphatically denied ties to Russia – a claim refuted by his Twitter feed and a cursory Google search. Putin says his government had nothing to do with the hack of the DNC computers even though it carelessly left a trail of crumbs tracing back to his intelligence services. The cunning liar is exploiting the blundering one.|Franklin Foer
I favor pocket-sized hard drives that travel between home and office syncing with computers on both ends.|Barton Gellman
Yeah computers are going to take over the programming business because they have become so fast recently that they can solve the Halting Problem in five seconds flat.|Craig Bruce
I always loved computers – it’s something inside you.|George M. Church
My e-mail address is actually my wife’s e-mail address. I actually hate computers.|Joe Sakic
I closely follow everything about user interface or human-computer interface: technology that makes computers closer to the way the human being actually functions.|Francois-Henri Pinault
Techno-humanism aims to amplify the power of humans creating cyborgs and connecting humans to computers but it still sees human interests and desires as the highest Yuval Noah Harariity in the universe.|Yuval Noah Harari
My poor children have been the subject of all of my experiments. We’re still doing what I call ‘Amish summers’ where I turn off all electronics and pack away all their computers and stuff and watch them scream for a while until they settle down into like an electronic-free summer.|Shonda Rhimes
If computers remain far worse than us at image recognition a certain over-confident combination of man and machine can elsewhere take inaccuracy to a whole new level.|Tom Chatfield
In the future I’m sure there will be a lot more robots in every aspect of life. If you told people in 1985 that in 25 years they would have computers in their kitchen it would have made no sense to them.|Rodney Brooks
Look at what Silicon Valley has done – the advance of computers.|Buzz Aldrin
If it hadn’t been for our Traf-O-Data venture and if it hadn’t been for all that time spent on UW computers you could argue that Microsoft might not have happened.|Paul Allen
Even though most people won’t be directly involved with programming everyone is affected by computers so an educated person should have a good understanding of how computer hardware software and networks operate.|Brian Kernighan
Inside all the computers of any large corporation is every decision that gets made. But people spend a huge amount of time trying to find the correct piece of information.|Stewart Butterfield
We all grew up our grandmothers and mothers had about three channels to watch so we watched those soaps and now a generation has grown up with the Internet and computers and video games.|Jack Wagner
Over and over again financial experts and wonkish talking heads endeavor to explain these mysterious ‘toxic’ financial instruments to us lay folk. Over and over they ignobly fail because we all know that no one understands credit default obligations and derivatives except perhaps Mr. Buffett and the computers who created them.|Richard Dooling
When you learn to read and write it opens up opportunities for you to learn so many other things. When you learn to read you can then read to learn. And it’s the same thing with coding. If you learn to code you can code to learn. Now some of the things you can learn are sort of obvious. You learn more about how computers work.|Mitchel Resnick
As smartphones have allowed us to have our computers emails social media feeds and a full surveillance system in our pockets at all times stories of the law enforcement’s unease with that have been popping up in the press. And of course the ones that become viral videos aren’t exactly flattering for law enforcement.|Sarah Lacy
I can live without endless television programmes and films just centered around computers. I can sort of live without that.|Martin Freeman
The U.S. government doesn’t build your computers nor do you fly aboard a U.S. government owned and operated airline. Private industry routinely takes technologies pioneered by the government and turns them into cheap reliable and robust industries. This has happened in aviation air mail computers and the Internet.|Peter Diamandis
While the digital transformation of industries will be profound we must keep in mind that it will have wider economic and social impact too as with previous revolutions driven by steam and coal electricity and computers.|Pierre Nanterme
It was very clear if you grew up in the middle of Ireland just how potent a force the Internet was and could be. I was always seduced by the potency of computers and the possibilities for which they could be leveraged.|Patrick Collison
The basic idea of Games With a Purpose is that we are taking a problem that computers cannot yet solve and we are getting people to solve it for us while they are playing a game.|Luis von Ahn
There are jobs particularly database-oriented ones for which computers are necessary but for everyday office life I question whether they have brought the productivity that their enormous cost up to £10 000 per person demands.|Felix Dennis
That was something that shaped my thinking regarding Estonia: the idea that we should be getting our young people to work with computers.|Toomas Hendrik Ilves
I was nerdy and really into computers. I was a good student until my senior year when I started traveling and had a lot of absences.|Tony Hawk
Electronic aids particularly domestic computers will help the inner migration the opting out of reality. Reality is no longer going to be the stuff out there but the stuff inside your head. It’s going to be commercial and nasty at the same time.|J. G. Ballard
I have a suspicion that the politicians’ revival of the old behaviourist ideas and techniques will be helped and reinforced by a powerful ally – the machines we have built. The computers.|Adam Curtis
Everyone knows or should know that everything we type on our computers or say into our cell phones is being disseminated throughout the datasphere. And most of it is recorded and parsed by big data servers. Why do you think Gmail and Facebook are free? You think they’re corporate gifts? We pay with our data.|Douglas Rushkoff
I graduated from high school in 1963. There were no computers cell phones Internet credit cards cassette tapes or cable TV.|Jeffrey Gitomer
I start every book with something that outrages me. I’m outraged by the FBI the CIA and computers that seem to have catalogued our lives. Power too often is accompanied by irresponsibility.|Robert Ludlum
When I was a kid I played ‘Super Mario Bros’ and ‘Megaman 2’ and ‘3’ for hours and hours trying to convince my mother they were good for me because they helped my hand-eye coordination. They influenced a whole generation of people to make computers what they are now through problem-solving and so on.|Lee Pace
GIS started on mainframe computers; we could get one map every five to 10 hours and if we made a mistake it could take longer. In the early ’90s when people started buying PCs we migrated to desktop software.|Jack Dangermond
The new generation of musicians is writing music on computers and this is very sad because the quality of songwriting has crashed and dived. There are some songs out that are made by only one guy who works a computer and doesn’t play any instruments.|Joe Walsh
Computers double their performance every month.|Stephen Hawking
Every ISP is being attacked maliciously both from in the United States and outside of the United States by those who want to invade people’s privacy. But more importantly they want to take control of computers they want to hack them they want to steal information.|Darrell Issa
The contrast of ISIL’s videos – which proclaim a fully-functioning and prosperous state – with those of RBSS which captured the dysfunction and violence of everyday life is shocking. In a sense it’s a war of ideas a war of propaganda a war being waged with cameras and computers not just guns.|Matthew Heineman
It’s important to be informed about issues like usability reliability security privacy and some of the inherent limitations of computers.|Brian Kernighan
People are on their computers more than watching TV because you can only watch voyeur TV which is basically what reality shows are for so long.|Stephen Root
I took this ‘how to build computers’ course basically because I’m sick and tired of getting ripped off by cheesy computer companies. Software baffles me. I like hardware. I used to change my own oil and now I want to build my own computer so I can have what I want.|Pat Cadigan
Computers are great tools but they need to be applied to the physical world.|Tony Fadell
People assume that computers will do everything that humans do. Not good. People are different from each other and they are all really different from computers.|Eric Schmidt
In the past missionaries have traveled to far countries with the message of the gospel – with great hardship and often with the loss of life. In contrast we can reach millions instantly from the comfort of our homes by merely hitting the ‘send’ button on our computers or with iPads or phones.|Ray Comfort
The whole thought of a career with computers – given that hardly anybody even knew what they were – it wasn’t even a concept.|James Gosling
Filecoin is a token with fundamental value. Filecoin is like Bitcoin but miners amass hard drives instead of hashing computers.|Juan Benet
I watch virtually no TV. All my screen time is computer time for me. When I’m not doing that I’m reading or talking to my friends who I got to know through computers.|Patrick Collison
I don’t know anything about computers.|Adam Carolla
My whole life had been designing computers I could never build.|Steve Wozniak
The humanitarian developers behind World of Warcraft have also discovered a way to bribe gamers into turning off their computers and going outside. If you log off for a few days your character will be more ‘rested’ when you resume playing a mode that temporarily speeds up your leveling.|Clive Thompson
We’re leading a fundamental shift from centralized energy to distributed energy. Energy will go in that direction just like mainframe computers went to client servers then to the Internet. I believe in solar and the macro trends are just too undeniable.|Lynn Jurich
You can’t have thousands of cars without good computers on the electric grid.|Shai Agassi
At our computer club we talked about it being a revolution. Computers were going to belong to everyone and give us power and free us from the people who owned computers and all that stuff.|Steve Wozniak
Some people are on their darn computers all day long.|Paul Nassif
Maths is fundamentally a different process in education than it is in the real world. There is an insistence that we do maths by hand when most of it is done by computers. The idea that you have to do everything by hand before you can operate a computer is nonsense.|Conrad Wolfram
Over the eons I’ve been a fan of and sucker for each latest automated system to ‘simplify’ and ‘bring order to’ my life. Very early on this led me to the beautiful-and-doomed Lotus Agenda for my DOS computers and Actioneer for the early Palm.|James Fallows
I love computers. I think it’s a miracle that you can type ‘coffee stain’ into a search engine and get a page of answers but I don’t like the viciousness of the Internet. It gives public voice to quite mad people.|Sheila Hancock
Computers are hierarchical. We have a desktop and hierarchical files which have to mean everything.|Ted Nelson
When I was in Japan on tour in 2010 I felt like I was 30 years into the future. I love technology and they are so advanced with their phones computers everything. I think they had the iPhone way before we did in the U.S. I love gadgets games social media and I try to stay ahead on all that stuff but they get it all first.|Soulja Boy
I just think there’s a general interest in the world of computers.|Irwin Winkler
And it’s here and it’s ready and we can really revolutionize the way we educate our children with tablet computers and I’m committed to doing whatever I can to speaking to whomever I can to send this signal – to pound this message home. Now is the time.|LeVar Burton
I’m pretty adept with computers and Photoshop for my blog and I found my style with a conversational voice and an image-ready column.|Robert Mankoff
Computers do the calculating to allow people to transform the world.|Conrad Wolfram
If I wasn’t a professional scientist I’d be an amateur scientist. But plan B was to go into computers.|Michio Kaku
Computers can bully us. A slow and unreliable system will bring even the toughest soul to their knees as they find themselves completely defenseless against the erratic whims of their rogue machine.|Lou Ferrigno
I’m a computer guy and one of the things I did with the good fortune that ‘Presumed Innocent’ brought me was to buy one of the very first laptop computers. It weighed about eight and a half pounds by the way.|Scott Turow
My parents had a software company making children’s software for the Apple II+ Commodore 64 and Acorn computers. They hired these teenagers to program the software and these guys were true hackers trying to get more colors and sound and animation out of those computers.|Bre Pettis
People are good at intuition living our lives. What are computers good at? Memory.|Eric Schmidt
I went on to Harvard and got very interested in computers and studying the earth’s landscape.|Jack Dangermond
I don’t care how big and fast computers are they’re not as big and fast as the world.|Herbert A. Simon
When I moved to New York City to go college my mother said ‘If you want to be recognized you need to go out to a club.’ Because we didn’t have computers. We didn’t have social media. We didn’t even have cellphones. So you had to go out to be recognized.|Michelle Visage
Use a personal firewall. Configure it to prevent other computers networks and sites from connecting to you and specify which programs are allowed to connect to the net automatically.|Kevin Mitnick
My advice is not always so logical and consistent. But then love is not logical and consistent. So why should my advice be? If you want that kind of thinking go to a computer. Computers are always logical and consistent and you see how often they get proposed to.|Zsa Zsa Gabor
I believe China is a major trade violator. The Chinese break all the rules. They counterfeit our goods steal our international property rights and hack the computers of our industries and government. Something must be done about it.|Lawrence Kudlow
I understand that computers which I once believed to be but a hermaphrodite typewriter-cum-filing cabinet offer the cyber literate increased ability to communicate. I do not think this is altogether a bad thing however it may appear on the surface.|David Mamet
I honestly believe that people sit behind their computers and just get really brave.|Leslie Jones
I didn’t know much about computers. I still worked on a manual Olivetti typewriter.|Mona Simpson
When computers came along I felt for the first time that I had the proper tools for the kind of theoretical work I wanted to do. So I moved over to that and that got me into psychology.|Herbert A. Simon
More and more people are seeing the films on computers – lousy sound lousy picture – and they think they’ve seen the film but they really haven’t.|David Lynch
My first introduction to computers and computer programming came during my freshman year of college. I majored in electrical engineering with a minor in computer science so I learned during my required courses at Vanderbilt University.|Kimberly Bryant
I don’t take for granted all the blessings that I have and as soon as I heard about Computers for Youth I really wanted to be involved. Anyone who knows me knows how much time I spend on computers. I’m a computer addict. Every young person deserves to have a computer in his or her home.|Bow Wow
We think of computers as smart and powerful machines. But your goldfish is smarter.|Jason Fried
I know so many people who actually just watch television on their computers now and don’t even really watch their TV anymore.|Busy Philipps
So technologies whether it is a telephone or an iPhone computers in general or automobiles television even all individualize us. We all sit in front of our iPhones and communicating but are we really communicating?|Henry Mintzberg
Future generations will know there’s nothing mystical about wetware because by 2100 Moore’s law will have given us tiny quantum computers powerful enough to upload a human soul.|Frank Tipler
No one has any faith in the tape anymore – everyone just relies on computers and considers the hardrive to be the safest option and I don’t. I think an analog tape is something you can hold.|Dave Grohl
Once computers can program they basically take over technological progress because already today the majority of technological progress is run by software by programming.|Jaan Tallinn
Brains are tricky and adaptable organs. For all the ‘neuroplasticity’ allowing our brains to reconfigure themselves to the biases of our computers we are just as neuroplastic in our ability to eventually recover and adapt.|Douglas Rushkoff
Computers were programmed to swap out error-prone inconsistent human calculation with digital perfection.|David Autor
Irony is going to be hard to get. You have to be master of the literal first. But then Americans don’t get irony either. Computers are going to reach the level of Americans before Brits.|Geoffrey Hinton
My dad Chris is from St Kitts. He worked in computers. I remember the first laptop when he brought it home. People from primary school came to check it out – it was huge.|Corinne Bailey Rae
I’m encouraging kids to use computers at their own pace to build aspirations.|Sugata Mitra
I use many different gadgets connected with computers; I use PCs laptops and a Palm Pilot. I also use the Internet to visit websites especially within Polish-language Internet. I usually go to political discussion groups and sites – of course as I use my real name people never believe that they are chatting with me!|Lech Walesa
While the recent addition of the National Guard providing a support role manning computers and cameras has allowed more Border Patrol agents to work the field more agents are still needed.|Timothy Murphy
You have riches and freedom here but I feel no sense of faith or direction. You have so many computers why don’t you use them in the search for love?|Lech Walesa
Obviously our children who have been playing with their computers since the age of five or six don’t have quite the same brain as those who were brought up on wooden or metal toys whose brains are certainly atrophied by comparison.|Claude Vorilhon
People don’t understand computers. Computers are magical boxes that do things. People believe what computers tell them.|Bruce Schneier
I use computers for email staying current with my own website as well as finding important information through other websites. I also use it for creating MP3 files of new music I’m working on.|Clint Black
You have to wait for people to program you. The only difference is the amount of people that you’re going to reach but that’s going to even out in the next two or three years anyway. Computers are being bought faster than televisions right now.|Chuck D
I like computers. I like the Internet. It’s a tool that can be used. But don’t be misled into thinking that these technologies are anything other than aspects of a degenerate economic system.|Jerry Brown
Learning can take place in the backyard if there is a human being there who cares about the child. Before learning computers children should learn to read first. They should sit around the dinner table and hear what their parents have to say and think.|Dixie Carter
Well I had a lot of help from my father with the soldering and so on and he was very good at math and was fascinated with computers and so I was fortunate enough to have a bunch of exposure going all the way back to high school – this was in the 1960s.|Mitch Kapor
If the machines can take the drudgery out of it and just leave us with the joy of drawing then that’s the best of both worlds – and I’ll use those computers!|Don Bluth
There has never been an unexpectedly short debugging period in the history of computers.|Steven Levy
So the thing I realized rather gradually – I must say starting about 20 years ago now that we know about computers and things – there’s a possibility of a more general basis for rules to describe nature.|Stephen Wolfram
When the first computers started to come in we tried to digitalize the seismological equipment.|Frank Press
I have three brothers and they’re all into computers. They’re all intellects. My mother would pay me a quarter a page to read a book and I couldn’t make 50 cents. I just couldn’t do it.|Josh Holloway
After a semester or so my infatuation with computers burnt out as quickly as it had begun.|Eric Allin Cornell
It was used for decades to describe talented computer enthusiasts people whose skill at using computers to solve technical problems and puzzles was – and is – respected and admired by others possessing similar technical skills.|Kevin Mitnick
The ownership of computers in the home is far less than the statistics show because usually when the computer breaks down once that is the end of it for a long long time. They do not have the money or incentive to get the computer repaired.|Major Owens
It is an interesting fact that during my tour I was never allowed access to computers radios or anything else that I might damage through curiosity or perhaps something more sinister.|Robert B. Laughlin
Something else has happened with computers.|Seth Lloyd
What’s happened with society is that we have created these devices computers which already can register and process huge amounts of information which is a significant fraction of the amount of information that human beings themselves as a species can process.|Seth Lloyd
I continue to meet people who have had their Web pages hijacked their browsers corrupted in some cases their children exposed to inappropriate material from these dangerous programs hidden in their family computers.|Cliff Stearns
They went back there looked at all the computers asked me to come in and tell them what all the computers were for specifically so they knew how to dismantle the network I had been running.|Sherman Austin
When they were done downloading all the information off each hard drive they took all the computers all the literature and loaded everything into a big white truck and left.|Sherman Austin
The great advance of personal computers was not the computing power per se but the fact that it brought it right to your face that you had control over it that were confronted with it and could steer it.|Kevin Kelly
Well the big products in electronics in the ’50s were radio and television. The first big computers were just beginning to come in and represented the most logical market for us to work in.|Jack Kilby
I think I thought it would be important for electronics as we knew it then but that was a much simpler business and electronics was mostly radio and television and the first computers.|Jack Kilby
Diaspora starts about a thousand years from now. Most of human civilisation has moved inside computers; essentially a major branch of our descendants consists of conscious software.|Greg Egan
We can just assume they have much more and powerful more advanced technology all the new computers everything could be much more easier and help them to build much more and many more nuclear weapons.|Mordechai Vanunu
Kids are finding out about the potential for discovery online from other sources; many of them have computers at home for instance or their friends have them.|Daniel Greenberg
There’s my education in computers right there; this is the whole thing everything I took out of a book.|Howard Aiken
One of the things that is not so good is that a decision was made long ago about the size of an IP address – 32 bits. At the time it was a number much larger than anyone could imagine ever having that many computers but it turned out to be to small.|Jon Postel
They were saying computers deal with numbers. This was absolutely nonsense. Computers deal with arbitrary information of any kind.|Ted Nelson
One of the problems with computers particularly for the older people is they were befuddled by them and the computers have gotten better. They have gotten easier to use. They have gotten less expensive. The software interfaces have made things a lot more accessible.|Steve Case
One of the biggest challenges we had in the first decade was not that many people had personal computers. There weren’t that many people to sell to and it was hard to identify them.|Steve Case
With our work at Kazaa we began seeing growing broadband connections and more powerful computers and more streaming multimedia and we saw that the traditional way of communicating by phone no longer made a lot of sense.|Niklas Zennstrom
From cell phones to computers quality is improving and costs are shrinking as companies fight to offer the public the best product at the best price. But this philosophy is sadly missing from our health-care insurance system.|John Shadegg
Well we didn’t have our original drummer on our last record. And most of that album was not played as a band in the studio. It was mostly the world of computers and overdubs. There was very few things played live or worked out as a band.|James Iha
But I’m so slow on it because I find it terribly hard writing blind on computers. The computer speaks to me but it’s just so slow I’m so terribly slow using it.|Jack Vance
Lighter computers and lighter sensors would let you have more function in a given weight which is very important if you are launching things into space and you have to pay by the pound to put things there.|Ralph Merkle
Interactive computers and software will I think provide a less costly method of doing some kinds of inquiry in knowledge acquisition and even reasoning and interaction.|Roy Romer
It appears that the media filters we carry in our heads are like computers: they’ve been forced to get faster in order to keep up with the demands our high-speed society puts on them.|Roy H. Williams
And my real enemy is not to hold the specimen sterile but it’s the lighting. The light is our real enemy. So we have to work with very very poor lighting. But we can increase the light with computers.|Lennart Nilsson
That’s the new way – with computers computers computers. That’s the way we can have the cell survive and get some new information in high resolution. We started about five years ago and today I think we have reached the target.|Lennart Nilsson
Well my wife always says to me and I think it’s true it’s very difficult for us to understand the Elizabethan understanding and enjoyment and perception of form as it is to say… it would be for them to understand computers or going to the moon or something.|Mark Rylance
Computers have become more friendly understandable and lots of years and thought have been put into developing software to convince people that they want and need a computer.|Roberta Williams
It’s interesting to see what people are saying about me. I like keep up with the latest rumors! A while back there was a rumor that I was going to do a film with Demi Moore about the takeover of Commodore computers!|Warwick Davis
I think we are at the very beginning of high changes not only in terms of digital film but in the way the movies will be screened whether they’ll be screened on phones on computers – on everything.|Michel Hazanavicius
I look like a geeky hacker but I don’t know anything about computers.|Justin Long
Keep in mind that there are computers that do touch things up. Like when I got a hold of the poster for ‘Gold Diggers ‘ I said: ‘Hey wait a minute! Those aren’t my teeth!’|Anna Chlumsky
In fact technology has been the story of human progress from as long back as we know. In 100 years people will look back on now and say ‘That was the Internet Age.’ And computers will be seen as a mere ingredient to the Internet Age.|Reed Hastings
The idea that so many kids eat rubbish and sit on computers all day long appals me and getting them into sport is a major way of getting them off computers and leading healthier lives.|Kirsty Gallacher
Most of the musicians that I know almost to the man everybody uses Apple computers. They’ve thought of the steps that you’re going to think of when you’re trying to create your thing. And that’s where the tools get invented to make better art.|Mike Shinoda
That’s what happens nowadays with people working on computers. They can so easily fix things with their mouse and take out all the ‘Oh somebody coughed in the background; we need to take that out’ – or somebody hit a bad note. Those are all the best moments.|Jack White
Technology is like water; it wants to find its level. So if you hook up your computer to a billion other computers it just makes sense that a tremendous share of the resources you want to use – not only text or media but processing power too – will be located remotely.|Marc Andreessen
I’m looking to evolve the concept of the new renaissance artist taking the world by storm through the art of public display and demonstration with technical savvy using cell phones and computers.|Perry Farrell
Everyone has this perception that the bloggers they say horrible things about you and they hide behind their computers where you can’t see them.|L’Wren Scott
A lot of journalists like to suck up to celebrities and then as soon as they’re a safe distance away at their computers they take shots. But that’s the way society has become especially in pop culture.|Scott Weiland
There were no PCs when I started programming on computers.|Dave Winer
I have a crazy amount of different jobs so the way I manage that is to not do more than one at a time. It’s like old computers that had small memory chips they would do something called swapping where they would fill the memory with one task do it and get it out.|Louis C. K.
I’m really anti-option so computers have been my nightmare with recording. I don’t want endless tracks; I want less tracks. I want decisions to be made.|Ian MacKaye
I get hired to hack into computers now and sometimes it’s actually easier than it was years ago.|Kevin Mitnick
Originally I was in both software and in online computing. The first innovation really was sort of at that time that we’re marrying the telephone and the computer so that people wouldn’t have to drive to the computer center. We didn’t have $1 000 computers.|Sam Wyly
Beatbullying’s ‘The Big March 2012’ is such a brilliant campaign and I am very proud to be a part of it. I have been a victim of cyber bullying myself and I know firsthand just how hurtful it can be. People think that they can hide behind computers and send nasty and hurtful comments to people and this is wrong.|Katherine Jenkins
I am a huge supporter for cash for caulkers – which allows people to make improvement for energy efficient in their homes. We should do the same for Americans purchasing appliances and computers and for that matter new air-conditioner and heating units.|Harold Ford Jr.
I am of the very last generation who didn’t have computers at school. As we grow old we’ll become something of an aberration.|Steve Coogan
I was a ‘Duck Hunt’ and ‘Mario’ guy and stuff like that. I was never technologically driven. I never had all the cool new toys. I was the youngest child I wasn’t the only child so I wasn’t spoiled as a kid. And we were on the farm so we didn’t have a lot. Also with computers I’m not very good with them. I just check my email.|Garrett Hedlund
I realized that I loved using computers to create something but being an architect just wasn’t going to keep me interested. The idea of a life spent obsessing over bathroom details for an Upper East Side penthouse was pretty depressing.|Joseph Kosinski
We’ve been working now with computers and education for 30 years computers in developing countries for 20 years and trying to make low-cost machines for 10 years. This is not a sudden turn down the road.|Nicholas Negroponte
From computers to information technology to airplanes it has been America’s unique blend of republican government and free-market capitalism that has allowed us to surpass all other nations in history.|George Nethercutt
We’ve lost these qualities these abilities to do something by hand. Some illustrators have it still but it’s just not art. We have photography. We have cameras and computers that do it better and faster.|Gerhard Richter
The Web is actually a coming together of three technologies if you like: the hypertext the personal computer and the network. So the network we had and the personal computers were there but people didn’t use them because they didn’t know what to use them for except maybe for a few games.|Robert Cailliau
I’m always working. I don’t really set limits. I tend to go in bursts. And in between I’m doing my taxes answering the phone and all those kinds of things. I waste a lot of time. Computers take a lot of time. I love computers.|Richard Dooling
We didn’t know the importance of home computers before the Internet. We had them mostly for fun then the Internet came along and was enabled by all the PCs out there.|Burt Rutan
How can you allow the trading companies to locate computers closer to exchanges and flash millions of bids to give an unfair advantage?… Even professionals are losing faith in some aspects of the system.|Mario Gabelli
Art shows us that human beings still matter in a world where money talks the loudest where computers know everything about us and where robots fabricate our next meal and also our ride there.|John Maeda
Computers tend to separate us from each other – Mum’s on the laptop Dad’s on the iPad teenagers are on Facebook toddlers are on the DS and so on.|Tom Hodgkinson
One of the big first computers was called SAGE which was a missile defense the first missile-defense computer which was like one of the first computers in the history of the world which got sold to the Department of Defense for I don’t know tens and tens of millions of dollars at the time.|Marc Andreessen
I’d like to think life has improved since 1850 despite the long hours we all seem to spend slaving over hot computers but the psychological journeys remain the same – the search for love identity a meaningful place in the world.|Meg Rosoff
Google is about information and computers and making things really fast. Facebook is about the sharing and connections. These missions give these companies direction and motivation.|Paul Buchheit
The whole aesthetics of computers very much feeds into my OCD. They fill my head with obsessionalities and my actions become very repetitive. It seems quite inimical to the dreamy state out of which fiction comes which seems so much less causally repetitive than the way one works on computers.|Will Self
Ignorance breeds antipathy. Until I got to know how computers worked I didn’t want anything to do with them. I said ‘Well why do I need them? I write letters.’ Which I still do.|Viggo Mortensen
Why pay a fee for Internet content when a million free sites are just a click away? There’s no incentive until people are too addicted to the Net to turn off their computers yet are bored with what’s available.|Nathan Myhrvold
The whole hardware industry has experienced the phenomenon in which every time computers get cheaper they appeal to a new set of users; every time they get more powerful old customers upgrade.|Nathan Myhrvold
We are the greatest computers in this world but now we’ve created the smart phone which is smarter than us now but we’re still making dumb decisions. We have given our creations more power than we have and that to me is dumb.|Bootsy Collins
I’m not very technically minded. I mean I don’t know how to do e-mail on computers.|Kate Winslet
Bounty hunters these days – because everything is so sophisticated with computers and surveillance it doesn’t have to be a one-man-army-type guy who goes in and kicks a door down.|Mickey Rourke
I am such a gearhead. In my recording studio I personally engineer and edit everything on computers.|Tommy Lee
People’s computers are not getting more secure. They’re getting more infected with viruses. They’re getting more under the control of malware.|Avi Rubin
Computers are very powerful tools but in the simulated world of the computer everything has to be calculated.|Margaret Wertheim
I think computers are the ultimate writing tool. I’m a very slow writer so I appreciate it every day.|Sherry Turkle
How did the economy produce all these amazing things that we have around us – computers and cell phones and so on? There were a bunch of ideas and the good ones grew and prospered. And the bad ones were pretty ruthlessly weeded out.|Tim Harford
Computers get better faster than anything else ever.|Erik Brynjolfsson
Computers are wasteful of paper and time. Once we’d get documents with a few errors. Now people make hundreds of copies until each sheet is flawless and memos are duplicated endlessly. Managers get swamped with emails.|Felix Dennis
Everywhere I look there are ads marking Mother’s Day. Mostly they conform to stereotype: flowers jewelry perfume. Not a lot of books. Not many computers. Few tools. Little that’s useful.|Margaret Heffernan
I am very bad at computers. I don’t really know how to write email.|Marjane Satrapi
There’s no other major item most of us own that is as confusing unpredictable and unreliable as our personal computers.|Walt Mossberg
I’ve come to a view that humans will continue to do what we do well and that computers will continue to do what they do very well and the two will coexist but in different spaces.|Eric Schmidt
I grew up before computers. Computers are changing things not all for the good.|Graham Hawkes
Before computers you’d start designing using shapes of cubes. Now I can start with something like a handkerchief an object that doesn’t have strong inside and outside boundaries or much closed volume.|Greg Lynn
We’ve seen computers play chess and beat grand masters. We’ve seen computers drive a car across a desert. But interestingly playing chess is easy but having a conversation about nothing is really difficult for a computer.|Hod Lipson
Personal computers were created by some teenagers in garages because the the wisdom of the computer industry was that people didn’t want these little toys on their desk.|Howard Rheingold
Technologies evolve in the strangest ways. Computers were created to calculate ballistics equations and now we use them to create amusing illusions. Creating amusing illusions is a big business if you play it right.|Howard Rheingold
People are good at figuring out what’s attractive and computers are good at quickly searching and finding. You put them together and bang!|Luis von Ahn
Science fiction has done a really good job of scaring us into thinking that computers shouldn’t get too smart because as soon as they get really smart they’re going to take over the world and kill us or something like that. But why would they do that?|Luis von Ahn
I like computers as a tool. I like them as an instrument. I think they’re just pretty.|Dallas Roberts
I don’t understand computers. I’ve been unable to construct a working mental model of how they do what they do. I can break software by looking at it. I can blow anything up. Without trying. It’s sort of like being a dowser. And this extreme elaborate clumsiness on my part is actually something people will pay me for. It’s quite wonderful.|Brenda Laurel
Music is composed on computers and other electronic equipment; producers don’t want to spend money on orchestra.|Sivamani
I worked at a local country club that I never belonged to. I did random tasks in the pro shop and supposed to be in charge of the register but that didn’t go so well. They quickly realized I was better with people not computers.|Shelley Hennig
Doing a movie about computers between 1978 and 1982? You can’t get much less sexy less active than that.|Joshua Michael Stern
I’m going to get myself one of those um movable computers – what do you call them… ? Laptops! I am bad. I still call my radio a wireless.|Katherine Parkinson
For short term relaxation I take a hot tub. It’s my best way to unblock writers’ block too. For a bit longer relaxation I enjoy camping. Just being in the wilderness with no phones or computers or anything I have to do really refreshes my spirit.|Ellen Hopkins
I think after a time there won’t be anything left to be interesting for mankind. Computers are about to do everything for us. Cellphones are smarter than we are. We’ll embrace spirituality because we’ll be bored of everything else.|Damian Marley
I’ve always been slightly embittered about computers because it was the only subject I failed at school.|Matt Frewer
I think our problems are inherently unsolvable. We need to change our genetic make-up or create computers that will think us out of it. I don’t think humans are able to deal with what we have.|Neill Blomkamp
I’m a Luddite with computers and I’m slightly worried about being hacked as well.|Jo Brand
Computers absolutely changed my life. Before I had a computer I had never written one thing. Not one thing. I’m a very bad speller and I was embarrassed by that. When I would type the little mistakes would make me nutty and I would never edit anything.|Penn Jillette
People are seduced by signals from the world but that is manipulation not reality. Computers have learned more about us than we’ve learned about them.|Douglas Rushkoff
Google did a great job hacking the Web to create search – and then monetizing search with advertising. And Apple did a great job humanizing hardware and software so that formerly daunting computers and applications could become consumer-friendly devices – even a lifestyle brand.|Douglas Rushkoff
Not only have computers changed the way we think they’ve also discovered what makes humans think – or think we’re thinking. At least enough to predict and even influence it.|Douglas Rushkoff
The reason why Apple computers have worked so well over time is that unlike Microsoft they don’t bend over backward to be compatible with every piece of hardware or software in the digital universe. To code or create for Apple you follow Apple’s rules. If you’re even allowed to.|Douglas Rushkoff
Technology has moved away from sharing and toward ownership. This suits software and hardware companies just fine: They create new bloated programs that require more disk space and processing power. We buy bigger faster computers which then require more complex operating systems and so on.|Douglas Rushkoff
My work was fairly theoretical. It was in recursive function theory. And in particular hierarchies of functions in terms of computational complexity. I got involved in real computers and programming mainly by being – well I was interested even as I came to graduate school.|Dennis Ritchie
Pixar is not about computers it’s about people.|John Lasseter
Pop music can absorb so many peculiar talents ranging from the completely nonmusical poseur who just uses music as a kind of springboard for a sense of style to people who just love putting all that complicated stuff together brick by brick on their computers to people like me who like playing conceptual games and being surprised.|Brian Eno
As a child I did what any normal kid who grew up without any electricity would do – I spent countless hours working on a computer wired to my parents’ car battery… and learned how to code. This natural passion for computers lead me into the Internet market during the late 1990s and early 2000s.|Ryan Holmes
The computer is not in our opinion a good model of the mind but it is as the trumpet is to the orchestra – you really need it. And so we have very massive simulations in computers because the problem is of course very complex.|Gerald Edelman
I truly believe that you have to bring more content to the table to survive in radio than saying ‘There was AC/DC and here’s Journey ‘ because computers can do that.|Eddie Trunk
Yes I was a big math and computer geek that’s true. I was driven by the scholastic side of things. For me it was all about what I could do with math and computers.|Brian Acton
I have nothing against investment banking but it’s like massaging money rather than creating money. If you’re in physics you create inventions you create lasers you create transistors computers GPS.|Michio Kaku
Technology ventures can succeed with very little investment unlike many other industries. A lot of the big Internet players like Google or Yahoo were started by a couple of guys with computers. Microsoft was started in Bill Gates’ garage.|Jonathan Raymond
More than any other modern tool computers are a total mystery to their users. Most people never open them up to fix them or to see how they work.|Clive Thompson
We’ve got to be delivering young people and people that are getting reeducated people who are getting reemployed into the marketplace with skills to work together to understand computers and to be able to be a part of that 21st century economy.|Ann McLane Kuster
With my wife Camille’s help I took to social networking. I’m working with the computers.|Bill Cosby
The reason we personify things like cars and computers is that just as monkeys live in an arboreal world and moles live in an underground world and water striders live in a surface tension-dominated flatland we live in a social world.|Richard Dawkins
We’re seeing an enormous amount of global upward mobility that’s quite rapid and quite sudden and undiscovered individuals have a chance – using the Internet using computers – to prove themselves very quickly. So I think the mobility story will be a quite complicated one.|Tyler Cowen
I think a lot of people will be liberated from a lot of oppressive manufacturing jobs or a lot of service jobs because they’ll be done by computers. There’ll be the world’s best education available online and free.|Tyler Cowen
When humans team up with computers to play chess the humans who do best are not necessarily the strongest players. They’re the ones who are modest and who know when to listen to the computer. Often what the human adds is knowledge of when the computer needs to look more deeply.|Tyler Cowen
There’s so much free material on the Internet you can learn from and some people are pure self-starters: they pick up computers and teach themselves everything. Certainly there are millions of people like that. But at the same time I think it’s a pretty small percentage of the population.|Tyler Cowen
I hate the thought of my children being glued to a screen. Children only play on computers all day because their parents let them.|Mariella Frostrup
Everything is being run by computers. Everything is reliant on these computers working. We have become very reliant on Internet on basic things like electricity obviously on computers working. And this really is something which creates completely new problems for us. We must have some way of continuing to work even if computers fail.|Mikko Hypponen
There is a difference between the stuff that people put online themselves like pictures and their trips and flights and meals they’ve eaten than the stuff that they don’t realize is also going into foreign computers. Like for example copies of your emails or every single online search you ever do ’cause all that is being recorded as well.|Mikko Hypponen
Fungible goods in economics can be extended and traded. So half as much grain is half as much useful but half a baby or half a computer is less useful than a whole baby or a whole computer and we’ve been trying to make computers that work that way.|Neil Gershenfeld
By 2020 most home computers will have the computing power of a human brain. That doesn’t mean that they are brains but it means that in terms of raw processing they can process bits as fast as a brain can. So the question is how far behind that is the development of a machine that’s as smart as we are?|Seth Shostak
Our computers double in capability on time scales of only a few years. It’s hardly outrageous to believe that we will successfully develop thinking machines within a handful of decades or at most a century or two. If that happens these artificial sentients will quickly leave us behind.|Seth Shostak
I would rather have racing without computers. The human side is forgotten and instead of talking over what’s happening and just trusting the feel of the driver the data becomes almost more important.|Jacques Villeneuve
Some things like the orbits of the planets can be calculated far into the future. But that’s atypical. In most contexts there is a limit. Even the most fine-grained computation can only forecast British weather a few days ahead. There are limits to what can ever be learned about the future however powerful computers become.|Martin Rees
In the past Google has used teams of humans to ‘read’ its street address images – in essence to render images into actionable data. But using neural network technology the company has trained computers to extract that data automatically – and with a level of accuracy that meets or beats human operators.|John Battelle
Everybody jokes about that old story about the world only needing five computers but when you think about it that’s where we’re heading.|Matt Mullenweg
I am not a great fan of computers. I do watch videos and analyse which batsman is playing how. Batsmen can play different shots on different days. A batsman may not play cover drives well but if he connects with two such shots he starts playing the drive well on that day.|Harbhajan Singh
I’m really interested in the current tech world because of my brother Michael. Since we were little kids in the 1970s he was dealing with the first computers. He works for the government.|Jimmi Simpson
I remember having computers at my parents’ house growing up. We had different desktop PCs but my first laptop was an IBM ThinkPad laptop. It was big bulky slow and terrible.|Scott Michael Foster
Failure’s inevitable. It happens all the time in a complex economy. And how did the economy produce all these amazing things that we have around us computers and cell phones and so on? Well the process was trial and error. There were a bunch of ideas and the good ones grew and prospered and the bad ones were pretty ruthlessly weeded out.|Tim Harford
I’m not really a knob-twiddler. I always work with an engineer; I’m not super hands-on when it comes to mixing boards and computers. I’m much more about what I’m hearing and what it needs to be like. I deal with songs and ideas and instruments.|Danger Mouse
We carry around computers in our pockets. Many people barely use them as phones. We use them as computers. If you think about the future when you’re traveling around it’s great to have a lightweight small form factor.|Mitchell Baker
I’m not on Twitter or Facebook and don’t even use email. I don’t trust computers: one day they’ll all break down and everyone will be knackered.|Eric Bristow
I thought of computers as very low class. I thought of myself as a pure mathematician and was interested in partial differential equations and topology and things like that.|Whitfield Diffie
Computers allow us to squeeze the most out of everything whether it’s Google looking up things so I guess that tends to make us a little lazy about reading books and doing things the hard way to understand how those things work.|Buzz Aldrin
Computers are very expensive and they need power and that can be a problem in Africa.|Mo Ibrahim
I’m impressed by the way some illustrators develop their images on computers but it’s too late for me to start and I’m still in love with paper and paint and pencils.|Anthony Browne
I detest computers. If you had a device like that 30 years ago that froze up constantly misbehaved constantly lost your information and screwed up when you needed it the most it would have been laughable.|Tom Scholz
I don’t think ‘Sugar Man’ is a music doc any more than ‘The Social Network’ is about computers. It just happens to have the best soundtrack ever.|Malik Bendjelloul
We can be incredibly disconnected in this day and age with computers and cell phones.|Marcia Gay Harden
Computers have cut-and-paste functions. So does right-wing historical memory.|Rick Perlstein
We think we’re saving time with microwaves cell phones beepers computers and voice mail but often these things help us create the illusion of getting somewhere – and they foster a chain of constant activity. We’re really just squeezing extra activity into every minute that we gain.|Arlie Russell Hochschild
I always have traveled with a camera throughout my life but I always had my old 35mm film camera. When I was training to go into space the only equipment there was a digital camera. I went through a fast-track class on Earth. It actually was fun though I’m basically a dinosaur with computers.|Guy Laliberte
Computers ought to help people find their own best path through lots of textual information.|Mitch Kapor
Managerial and professional people hadn’t really used computers hadn’t sat down at keyboards until personal computers. Personal computers have a totally different feel.|Mitch Kapor
I give Bill Gates an A for vision because as a business person and a strategist he’s brilliant. His flaw is that his view is not informed by a humanistic or compassionate vision of how to make computers work for people.|Mitch Kapor
With faster Internet and better computers you’d better believe we’re creating and consuming more digital data.|Peter Diamandis
One thing that humans still do better than computers is recognize images.|Peter Diamandis
Strangely enough the linking of computers has taken place democratically even anarchically. Its rules and habits are emerging in the open light rather shall behind the closed doors of security agencies or corporate operations centers.|James Gleick
It was not until the appearance of cyberpunk in the 1980s that SF began to grapple in a broadly meaningful way with the reality of computers as something other than giant mainframes tended by crewcut IBM nerds.|Paul Di Filippo
Computers sort of came around through games and toys. And you know the first computer most people had in the house may have been a computer to play ‘Pong ‘ a little microprocessor embedded and then other games that came after that.|Rodney Brooks
The way we live is changing. Each year our free time shrinks a little more as computers clamor for an increasing percentage of our attention.|Ruth Reichl
I am a child of digital generation. I have done most of the records with Rilo Kiley on computers on Pro Tools or other digital programs.|Jenny Lewis
If you take a regular animated film that’s being done by animators on computers so the filmmaking is a fairly technical process.|Peter Jackson
Every company that made computers when we started the Mac they’re all gone.|Phil Schiller
By the end of 1978 we had 11 partners and six franchisees we were operating in 22 cities and we had about 6 000 clients. We had left Electronic Accounting Systems and were doing our own processing on our own computers.|Tom Golisano
Our relationships with our computers are almost sexual they’re so close. They’re just such a huge part of our lives.|Mackenzie Davis
I think there is an awful lot of technology for technology’s sake. I have yet to be convinced by my husband that persuading our mobiles to talk to our computers is going to be quicker and more straightforward than scribbling a note in our kitchen diary.|Jojo Moyes
‘Bloomberg’s you know for people who don’t use the service provides through the Internet – through specialized computers – information about the financial world. It’s a very large data base. I think they have on the order of a billion dollars or more a year in revenue.|Craig Venter
The future of television is not on television but online. A majority of us are turning to our computers and mobile devices for news and entertainment Millennials especially.|Jason Calacanis
Every one of today’s smartphones has thousands of times more processing power than the computers that guided astronauts to the moon.|Peter Thiel
Computers were never designed in the first place to become musical instruments. Within a computer everything is sterile – there’s no sound there’s no air. It’s totally code. Like with computer-generated effects in movies you can create wonders. But it’s really hard to create emotion.|Thomas Bangalter
The idea that computers can ever replace teachers and schools reveals a deep lack of understanding about the role leadership plays in student success.|Wendy Kopp
Movies began as a communal experience. Even though we now watch them as DVD’s sometimes alone on our computers mostly in the history of cinema it has been a communal experience.|Alison Owen
Whatever they do criminals and non-criminals act in particular ways. Some writers for instance use computers others pen and paper. Some write in the morning some at night. Each writer has a distinct style with variations in grammar sentence structure and voice.|Ronald Kessler
Computers and computing are all around us. Some computing is highly visible like your laptop. But this is only part of a computing iceberg. A lot more lies hidden below the surface. We don’t see and usually don’t think about the computers inside appliances cars airplanes cameras smartphones GPS navigators and games.|Brian Kernighan
Without computers in the 17th century we could classify the entire animal kingdom… there was this idea of the speciation right? And now all a search engine is is essentially the mathematical speciation of ideas – and these things really derive from the way that language is used and the way words relate.|Joshua Cohen
In 2004 the iPod was a novelty and tablet computers were a dream. Now we take for granted that we can see whatever we want whenever and wherever we want to see it be it ‘Grand Illusion’ or ‘Duck Dynasty.’|Terry Teachout
For about half an hour in mid-1992 I knew as much as any layperson about the pleasures of remote access of other people’s computers.|Elizabeth McCracken
There’s an evolution from today we tell computers to do stuff for us to where computers can actually do stuff for us. For example if I go and pick up my kids it would be good for my car to be aware that my kids have entered the car and change the music to something that’s appropriate for them.|Sundar Pichai
I look at my son and his relationship to technology and I think back to when I was six and how wildly different the world is in that regard. I see him using an iPhone and all this stuff and then I think back to when I was six. We didn’t even have computers in our houses at all yet. This is a huge gap between our experiences as children.|Jeff Lemire
I use computers and the Internet every day of my life and yet I have absolutely no idea how they work. I’m like a labrador watching ‘The Matrix.’|John Niven
As the Kindle’s dread grip on digital publishing is challenged by tablet computers and Android smartphones with their bright screens and high resolution the need for illustration is growing.|Chris Riddell
In high school I used to teach guitar and fix computers by the hour. I was looking for some way to make some cash so I actually learned how to play guitar in order to try to teach it.|Jon Oringer
I joined the staff of EMI in Middlesex in 1951 where I worked for a while on radar and guided weapons and later ran a small design laboratory. During this time I became particularly interested in computers which were then in their infancy. It was interesting pioneering work at that time: drums and tape decks had to be designed from scratch.|Godfrey Hounsfield
Stationery gets me excited because it has an individual character unlike computers which may be convenient but are generic and bland.|Damon Galgut
Millions of nerdy kids who grew up in the 1980s could only find the components they needed at local Radio Shacks and the stores were like a lifeline to a better world where everybody understood computers.|Annalee Newitz
The capacity of computers is doubling every eight months. It’s exponential development. I think it’s a real threat actually that a computer one day will be more intelligent than us.|David Lagercrantz
There are more clocks than ever – clocks on computers on cell phones on televisions on any screen available telling time to the digital second – but they all seem to matter less.|Stacey D’Erasmo
At home we’re listening to TV or playing with our computers so our entertaining is rusting. We don’t know how to be good hosts and guests in business situations.|Letitia Baldrige
In the early 1990s Americans used their home phone lines to connect their desktop computers to the Internet via ISPs like AOL Earthlink or Netzero. Back then the ISPs didn’t have cost-effective technology to select particular sites for blocking or privileging.|Marvin Ammori
We want the digital world to bend to your physical life your real emotional life as a person and we don’t want you to bend to computers.|Rony Abovitz
When I heard the news that Steve Jobs had died my mind flashed back to 1985 when I began my love affair with computers. I was stationed in Moscow for The Associated Press and I ordered an Apple IIc – by Telex – from a department store in Helsinki Finland. They express-shipped it to me a month later by train.|Andrew Rosenthal
I have sometimes thought the power of computers had exceeded our ability to use them but Mr. Jobs and his team kept giving us devices that made indispensable things easier in ways you never thought of.|Andrew Rosenthal
By the time I was a senior in high school I knew I wanted to move to Silicon Valley and learn more about computers and the Internet. I just fell in love with technology and the potential of everything the Internet had to offer.|Brit Morin
If somebody had told me when I was in graduate school ‘Brian in 35 years you’ll get a chance to fly the first commercial spacecraft with no computers ‘ I’d have said ‘I don’t think so. People are not going to be that stupid.’|Brian Binnie
Charlestoning is hard. People were fit in the ’20s to be able to do that. I guess they didn’t sit in front of their computers all day.|Elizabeth Debicki
I’ve always shied away from computers the Internet and all that. I’m a bit more traditional really – pick up a newspaper pick up a phone.|Bradley Wiggins
People need to get out and do some more exercise especially children who are stuck inside with computers.|Katie Taylor
I never have used computers or calculators. I’ve always been able to figure out in my head far before my opposition has in negotiating for acquisitions where we need to be and where the numbers are and how we could get the best sight of the bargain without having to resort to accountants or assistants or financial experts.|Jon Huntsman Sr.
We can’t really know ourselves because we have not created ourselves. But we can know computers we can know cars because anything that we made we can understand.|Terrance Hayes
Would you go into a CD store and steal a CD? It’s the same thing people going into the computers and loggin’ on and stealing our music.|Britney Spears
I am not great at computers. If I were to try shopping through Google I’d end up with 33 vests.|Mary Berry
The form of computers has never been important with speed and performance being the only things that mattered.|Jonathan Ive
Computers intimidate me.|Dylan Lauren
My father raised me to build computers hardware. Literally as an 8 year old I had a soldering iron and circuit boards and this was in neighbourhoods that wouldn’t have a whole lot of money or anything. And I figured out ways to just hustle.|Jidenna
I grew up around electronic instruments. To me the turntable is an electronic device. At the same time I had access to drum machines and keyboards through my uncle; then track recorders into computers. At an early age I was messing with computers more than most hip-hop musicians.|Ali Shaheed Muhammad
Those who believe that health is a commodity on par with cars or computers fail to grasp the basic economic lesson that health is very vulnerable to exposure to the markets not least due to the profound asymmetries in power between the providers and consumers.|Vikram Patel
Nobody expects that just because they’ve made computers better they’re going to give them to you free.|Dean Kamen
I was using computers for music in the ’70s ’80s and ’90s and people didn’t get it. They thought you should only use computers for your taxes and making pie charts.|Buffy Sainte-Marie
Than Shwe ordered the confiscation of all cell phones and laptops and computers so no reportage could come out of Burma. It seemed clear that a demon something diabolical rather than something compassionate and human was in charge of Burma.|Clarissa Pinkola Estes
I wonder what would have happened if automation and computers had existed when ‘Oklahoma!’ was having its out-of-town try-out and three days before closing in Boston when it was still called ‘Away We Go ‘ they added a new song called ‘Oklahoma!’ I don’t think that could happen today. It’s almost impossible to change musicals on the go now.|Andrew Lloyd Webber
I think I compose as a listener: improvising and listening back excites me because I get to ideas that never would have occurred. Then I bring in the computers and samplers… and I begin to loop and process and change them.|Thomas Newman
This is a man who was 23 years old when he theorized the idea of creating a programmable machine and in that way Turing foresaw computers and artificial intelligence. These were revolutionary ideas at that time.|Morten Tyldum
I want people to come to me open and vulnerable. When they come to the gallery they have to leave their watches their computers their Blackberrys iPads iPhones because we are so incredibly used to technology and I wanted to remove that.|Marina Abramovic
Everyone talks about how much data’s in the world. Except actually 80% of it is pretty blind to computers. I mean it can store it. But if it’s a movie a poem a song it doesn’t know what it’s actually saying or doing.|Ginni Rometty
My first computers were a Timex Sinclair and an Apple II.|Walt Mossberg
For many years even as users became more sophisticated personal computers took too much effort to use without problem-solving keeping alive the yearning for greater simplicity. Microsoft’s dominant Windows platform in particular was a home for all manner of bugs and problems that required IT people to straighten out.|Walt Mossberg
No computer or smartphone can ever be considered 100 percent ‘safe.’ We’re all engaged in a perpetual battle with criminals and hostile governments trying to use computers and the Internet to steal information and identities.|Walt Mossberg
My first synthesizer was the VCS3. I got it in Bristol in the late Sixties long before Pink Floyd used them. I had to sell an acoustic guitar and an old reel-to-reel tape recorder to raise the money. You can do fantastic things with modern computers but you cannot use them in the same intuitive spontaneous way you can a VCS3.|Jean-Michel Jarre
Until computers and robots make quantum advances they basically remain adding machines: capable only of doing things in which all the variables are controlled and predictable.|Michio Kaku
In my view the fact that computers caught up to humans and completely dominate humans in chess and some other domains already that says there’s evidence that yes in principle they can be better programmers than humans.|Jaan Tallinn
Once you acknowledge that human brains are basically made of atoms and acknowledge that atoms are governed by simple laws of physics then there is no reasoning principle why computers couldn’t do anything that people are doing and we don’t really see any evidence that this is not the case.|Jaan Tallinn
I used to have the very standard worldview. I can easily identify with people who see computers getting faster and smarter and technology getting more and more beneficial without seeing the other side.|Jaan Tallinn
In computers we do all kinds of manual manipulations. We grab and drag icons. We click on and open windows. We pull down a screen. We stretch a screen. We scroll up and down.|Louis B. Rosenberg
Open-source encyclopedias such as Wikipedia and search engines such as Google and Bing which people can tap into anytime and anywhere via computers and smart phones put a world of knowledge at our fingertips at a lower cost than ever before.|Naveen Jain
This is an anxiety driven world – the whole world is driven by anxiety. It is anxiety about the aftermath of the global financial crisis; it’s anxiety about inequality and about computers replacing jobs.|Robert J. Shiller
Some computers have security software that make it impossible to hack into and it’s the same with brains – some malfunction and some you can’t hack into them at all.|Keith Barry
You can model experiments on computers now and then execute them and you don’t actually need a fully stocked lab.|Arvind Gupta
Elon Musk is talking about silicon nanoparticles pulsing through our veins to make us sort of semi-cyborg computers. But why not take a noninvasive approach? I’ve been working and trying to think and invent a way to do this for a number of years and finally happened upon it and left Facebook to do it.|Mary Lou Jepsen
Computers shouldn’t be parents but they are. Please spend time with your kids. If you don’t want to then I don’t want to. It might hurt you to discipline your offspring but it saves the child from being disciplined later by someone less forgiving. Like a criminal court judge. If you don’t spank your child someone else will.|GloZell
Silicon Valley is a great place for Bitcoin since everyone understands computers and there are lots of libertarians running around.|Roger Ver
Closed environments dominated the computing world of the 1970s and early ’80s. An operating system written for a Hewlett-Packard computer ran only on H.P. computers; I.B.M. controlled its software from chips up to the user interfaces.|Ellen Ullman
People talk about computer programmers as if computers are our whole lives. That’s simply not true.|Ellen Ullman
A computer is a general-purpose machine with which we engage to do some of our deepest thinking and analyzing. This tool brings with it assumptions about structuredness about defined interfaces being better. Computers abhor error.|Ellen Ullman
Technology improves our lives in so many ways – from our toasters ovens and refrigerators at home to our computers fax machines and BlackBerrys at work. Technology makes once-burdensome tasks easy and fun.|Jared Polis
Computers and smart devices are among the greatest intellectual gifts ever created for man but if not balanced with human contact may offer little to develop one’s heart.|Angela Ahrendts
I grew up loving computers and math actually. I also loved English literature and French but I became obsessed with computers when the Apple II was coming out.|Parker Harris
We need business leaders who have a respect for technical issues even if they don’t have technical backgrounds. In a lot of U.S. industries including cars and even computers many managers don’t think of technology as a core competency and this attitude leads them to farm out technical issues.|Edwin Catmull
Computers are really patient. They can sit there all day. It’s a totally different situation dealing with humans. They can be tired or overly excited.|GRiZ
Computers in general and software in particular are much more difficult than other kinds of technology for most people to grok and they overwhelm us with a sense of mystery.|Om Malik
For the longest time computers have been associated with work. Mainframes were for the Army government agencies and then large companies. Workstations were for engineers and software programmers. PCs were initially for other white-collar jobs.|Om Malik
In a way digital cameras were like very early personal computers such as the Commodore 64 – clunky and able to do only a few things.|Om Malik
While in the early days of networks growth was limited by slowness and cost at numerous points – expensive telephone connections computers that crashed browsers that didn’t work – the rise of the smartphone has essentially changed all that.|Om Malik
I think it’s pretty pointless my children learning to use a keyboard – we will just talk to our computers. Why would we not?|Julian Treasure
Computing is no more about work – it’s all about making work happen with computers.|Pranav Mistry
As far as solving India’s problems with technology is concerned I think there are some wrong assumptions in making computing work at the grassroots. We need to go beyond the notion of technology being all about computers.|Pranav Mistry
My life’s goal is to get rid of computers and invent everything that removes its necessity.|Pranav Mistry
I was standing on the shoulders of other science fiction writers like William Gibson who had written ‘Neuromancer’ on a typewriter before home computers even really existed and Neal Stephenson who wrote ‘Snow Crash’ in the early ’90s and imagined an online virtual world before the birth of the modern Internet.|Ernest Cline
I just grew up liking computers and stuff like that. Mainly cool stuff like video games.|Thomas Middleditch
It’s not as if I’ve never been awkward myself. I’m a big gamer so I’ve had access to that type of personality. I used to go to these LAN parties; that was before high-speed Internet. The only way you could get lag-free gaming was to haul these huge computers to people’s houses.|Thomas Middleditch
I’m into computers and have been for a while.|Thomas Middleditch
The future of filmmaking is to make the canvas bigger something you can’t enjoy on your phones or computers.|Sidharth Malhotra
My daughter was 10 years old when she told me she hated computers. As someone who has spent her career helping build one of the largest tech companies in the world I was in shock. Suddenly an issue I faced repeatedly at work – the lack of women in tech – hit squarely at home.|Susan Wojcicki
Humans are still much better than computers at recognizing speech.|Geoffrey Hinton
We are having trouble finding teachers to teach STEM. We also need to make sure schools have the resources. Some communities have multiple computers for each student in their schools. Other schools don’t have textbooks let alone computers.|Brad Schneider
Technological developments are changing the way we live and there is much talk of digitalisation and the disruptive business models enabled by smart phones tablets computers and the ‘Internet of things.’|Sharan Burrow
As the world transitions to the Internet of Everything – where people processes and data are intelligently connected – we’ll be linked in even more ways. Here billions and trillions of sensors around the earth and in its atmosphere will send information back to machines computers and people for further evaluation and decision-making.|Tae Yoo
I had originally wanted to be a lawyer. Even when I went to college and majored in engineering I still thought I’d get a law degree. Then I started taking electrical engineering classes where I saw some of the innovation happening around computers and solid-state technology in the mid ’80s.|Kimberly Bryant
If you’re talking about a world in which everybody is connected by computers 24 hours a day that exists right now.|John Cabrera
I think smartphones are one of humanity’s most remarkable creations: computers are amazing enough but a supercomputer you can carry in your pocket and communicate instantly with anyone anywhere… it’s no wonder they’re troublingly addictive.|John Lanchester
I believe in the potential of all things possibly imagined that can be made into a reality. My uncle was a Swedish scientist and in the 1970s he would speak of computers controlling most things in the future and self-driving cars and wireless communication. All the things that we are living with now.|Dean Haglund
When I was a graduate student in computer science in the early 2000s computers were barely able to detect sharp edges in photographs let alone recognize something as loosely defined as a human face.|Fei-Fei Li
You can go as far back as fifth grade and you will find me tinkering with media and computers making things that are a little off the beaten track.|Robin Sloan
My mom was a biological illustrator for a time before computers replaced that job.|Jeff Vandermeer
Computers are the most powerful tools that humanity has ever created. Yet we treat them largely as a black box; as if it were an alien artifact that magically appeared on desks in homes and in our pockets.|Tobias Lutke
I think people just because of digital recording and how computers have become such an important part of our lives I think the means to record music now is in more people’s hands. It’s a lot cheaper than it used to be.|Lou Barlow
What are we going to do as automation increases as computers get more sophisticated? One thing that people say is we’ll retrain people right? We’ll take coal miners and turn them into data miners. Of course we do need to retrain people technically. We need to increase technical literacy but that’s not going to work for everybody.|Oren Etzioni
I hope that memes jump out of our computers in the future.|Colleen Ballinger
My generation is so tied up in television computers and video games. When we were born MTV was already there. It was normal.|Shooter Jennings
In the week following Sandy we weren’t flooded but we were without everything else – I ended up living by candlelight – no phones no computers no light no power. If we took a walk at night to go and find something to eat it was completely black with no lights coming out of the windows no street lights: a very apocalyptic feeling.|Lee Ranaldo
We taught ourselves to simulate how microprocessors work using DEC computers so we could develop software even before our machine was built.|Paul Allen
As someone who was basically a software engineer for many years I became fascinated with how the brain functions and is put together and works in such a different fashion than computers do.|Paul Allen
Computers are really basically computing elements and a lot of memory. They are pretty easy to understand as compared to the brain which was designed by evolution.|Paul Allen
In order to be truly intelligent computers must understand – that is probably the critical word.|Paul Allen
I first got interested in the brain through computers.|Paul Allen
The human brain works in so far mysterious and wondrous ways that are completely different than the ways that computers calculate. Things like appetite or emotion how do those function in the brain?|Paul Allen
The Cube is approximately – it’s around the same age as the Internet and in that time we had no personal computers yet.|Erno Rubik
I think when I graduated from my high school in ’84 they were just bringing computers in. I don’t even know if they were for classes. They might have just been for the administration. It was nowhere on the radar for anybody that I know.|Justine Bateman
None of us today know how to get computers to learn with the speed and flexibility of a child.|Andrew Ng
Now that we’ve got computers you can pump up anything that anybody ever uttered.|Dick Clark
I don’t think Apple would be making the computers the iPhone being the top electronics company it is if Steve Jobs didn’t have some regrets over mistakes he made and learned to overcome them.|Vitor Belfort
I’m not a luddite. Science computers medicine they’re all great. But nature is context. That which we can’t control. Its constant mortality and immortality is an answer to the terror of finite existence. It reassures the soul.|Victoria Coren Mitchell
I was a nerd growing up I was really into computers and technology and most of my friends were basically in that world as well.|Sam Esmail
You can look at stats as much as you want – and we do – but you can have too much of it. You can spend too much time looking at computers rather than looking at the real thing which is out there on the pitch. I still think that being a good judge of players is the most important thing.|Harry Redknapp
I like people writing great songs on guitar or piano or what have you. I miss people getting on stage with real bands and real instruments and expressing themselves that way instead of with computers and technology.|John 5
I built computers and stuff when I was a teenager and whatever.|Flying Lotus
I’ve always taken apart calculators and anything I can get my hands on when I was younger. When I was around 12 – like 6th grade – my parents always had around Mac computers because my mom is a teacher. So I’d always be playing around with all the crazy applications and making banners and printing things out and always into graphic design.|iJustine
Computers used to petrify me before I figured it was just a matter of getting used to them.|Raveena Tandon
The only way we can fly planes and use computers is because people were curious about their world and also skeptical about the things they were told to be immutable so they figured out other ways of doing things.|Jamie Hyneman
I know how to use computers. I was one of those guys on Myspace who had one of those fake hit counters.|PartyNextDoor
When I first started running there were no computers. There was no such thing as a laptop.|Edwin Moses
The first thing I think I was building computers I started to build a computer when I was 17 or 18 at home an IBM compatible computer and then I started to sell computers and when I sold a computer to a company called Ligo I think and they were selling systems which became blockbuster.|Peter Jones
My mom bought a computer in the ’80s to do accounting and she was so smart at computers that we spent all our time with them. My childhood was sitting on the floor of her office and figuring out how to program with my mom.|Brianna Wu
My dad used to build computers for the U.S. government for military intelligence. So he always had computers around the house.|Randy Pitchford
My mother worked for Confederation of Indian Industry and Aptech Computers.|Tahir Raj Bhasin
Because the last time I saw my family was 2015. Sometimes I even forget what they look like you know? It’s so hard to communicate with them. Because Turkish police raided my house. They took electronics away computers away. They wanted to see if I’m still in contact with my family or not. Any single text they will all be in jail.|Enes Kanter
I started working at a point in history when digital computers were becoming mature and before that there were no such machines.|Marvin Minsky
With the appearance of communications networks and interconnected computers we got the world wide web and it changed the lives of most people I think.|Marvin Minsky
I always wanted to be a pilot though somewhere down the line switched to computers.|Shefali Zariwala
One thing about computers and iPhones is they’re making people mentally lazy.|Jose Feliciano
The thing that changed everything for me was the Firefox browser. I was pretty bad when it came to computers – I didn’t know how powerful the internet could be until I discovered tabbed browsing.|Graham Linehan
I think that is one of the main goals of pushing forward in machine learning: having computers provide the wisdom that a human companion would be able to provide in offering advice looking up more information when necessary and those kinds of things.|Jeff Dean
Traditionally computers have not been that good at interacting with people in ways that people feel natural interacting with.|Jeff Dean
Computers don’t usually have a sense of if you have a picture of something what is in that image. And if we can do a good job of understanding what is in an image that can bring along a lot of new things you can do in applications.|Jeff Dean
Computers can see and understand what people say via speech recognition.|Jeff Dean
How can we maximize the benefit of our nightly sleep? Turn off cell phones computers televisions and any other distracting devices before bedtime to establish an atmosphere of calm and restfulness.|Margaret Cuomo
Everybody uses computers to train so much now that the first nine or 10 moves of a match are made without thinking.|Hikaru Nakamura
When I was younger I would look at a game with computers and still be fascinated by the possibilities.|Hikaru Nakamura
I use the computers to maximize my efficiency and establish a baseline for my swing but once I’m on the course I don’t think about any of that. I just play.|Bryson DeChambeau
I build computers.|Sean Murray
There are hundreds of competitors in the direct marketing of computers. We have been very successful because of quality price service and the way we treat the customer.|Ted Waitt
When computers came online and people found out people weren’t mixing there was uproar and outed. But now that hasn’t happened. People don’t seem to care.|Erick Morillo
Some of our best and unexpected discoveries have been born out of crises – from the Second World War for example came Alan Turing’s decoding machine widely considered as the precursor to modern day computers and artificial intelligence.|Alok Sharma
A lot of the design courses in schools and colleges don’t incorporate very much making and a lot of the making courses incorporate too much technology and computers.|David Linley
A lot of people don’t know how to pull themselves out of their rut and how to change realities. In technology you routinely have an ‘upgrade’ for your phones and computers. Our personal inner software needs upgrading too.|Pooja Bedi
Computers can be taught that certain tune or certain chords changes will sound pleasant together but I don’t think it’s going to reach a point where a machine will generate ideas and styles.|Bonobo
The use of computers and other mobile devices has to be so carefully controlled. As we discovered with ‘Dream School’ rather awkwardly it can become a source of total disruption that destroys the co-operative learning experience.|David Starkey
Girls are interested in computers there just are not many programs out there for them.|Judith Love Cohen
Computers and cellphones – which require semiconductors and microchips to work – have become so essential to life all over the world that it’s easy to ignore the problems with building them.|Tatiana Schlossberg
I actually did not touch any type of computer until I came to America. I knew computers existed yes but I didn’t have access to them. In the Philippines I did have video games.|Bretman Rock
It’s amazing what these computers we carry around in our pockets can do. And if anyone wants to they can know what we’re doing.|Ashley Zukerman
You can be very connected computers are great they can get you a ticket to Venezuela in five minutes; brilliant. But if you know your music and your history you can make that work as a tool. If you don’t you’re working as a slave to it.|Goldie
I don’t bother with computers although I have an electronic reader.|June Brown
Computers are dangerous.|Harry Enfield
One aspect of the male that women find hard to understand is his obsession with electronic gadgets such as mobile phones tiddly televisions computers and combined answerphone-fax machines.|Harry Enfield
