If you can imagine a society in which the computer- robot is the only menial, you can imagine anything.
Don't have good ideas if you aren't willing to be responsible for them.
We kid ourselves if we think that the ratio of procedure to data in an active data-base system can be made arbitrarily small or even kept small.
If your computer speaks English, it was probably made in Japan.
If we believe in data structures, we must believe in independent (hence simultaneous) processing. For why else would we collect items within a structure? Why do we tolerate languages that give us the one without the other?
Perhaps if we wrote programs from childhood on, as adults we'd be able to read them.
If a listener nods his head when you're explaining your program, wake him up.
If two people write exactly the same program, each should be put into microcode and then they certainly won't be the same.
If you have a procedure with ten parameters, you probably missed some.
If a program manipulates a large amount of data, it does so in a small number of ways.
