大脑的活动构成了心智

电子学的未来取决于我们利用半导体材料潜力的能力。

I think of my pile of old paperbacks, their pages gone wobbly, like they’d once belonged to the sea.

That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road, and when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow County. Now, I figured since I'd run this far, maybe I'd just run across the great state of Alabama. And that's what I did. I ran clear across Alabama. No particular reason. I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean. And when I got there, I figured since I'd gone this far, might as well turn around, just keep on going. And when I got to another ocean, I figured since I'd gone this far... I might as well just turn back and keep right on going. When I got tired, I slept. When I got hungry, I ate. When I had to go... you know... I went.

Purely applicative languages are poorly applicable.

Never outshine the master. Always make those above you feel comfortably superior.
