#2361To communicate is the beginning of understanding.
-- AT&T
#2362To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so.
#2363To err is human, to forgive, beyond the scope of the Operating System.
#2364To iterate is human, to recurse, divine.
-- Robert Heller
#2365To say that UNIX is doomed is pretty rabid, OS/2 will certainly play a role,
but you don't build a hundred million instructions per second multiprocessor
micro and then try to run it on OS/2. I mean, get serious.
-- William Zachmann, International Data Corp
#2366To the systems programmer, users and applications serve only to provide a
test load.
#2367To those accustomed to the precise, structured methods of conventional
system development, exploratory development techniques may seem messy,
inelegant, and unsatisfying. But it's a question of congruence:
precision and flexibility may be just as disfunctional in novel,
uncertain situations as sloppiness and vacillation are in familiar,
well-defined ones. Those who admire the massive, rigid bone structures
of dinosaurs should remember that jellyfish still enjoy their very
secure ecological niche.
-- Beau Sheil, "Power Tools for Programmers"
#2368To understand a program you must become both the machine and the program.
#2369Today is a good day for information-gathering. Read someone else's mail file.
#2370Today is the first day of the rest of your lossage.
