There are a couple of people in the world who can really program in C or FØRTRAN. They write more code in less time than it takes for other programmers. Most programmers aren't that good. The problem is that those few programmers who crank out code aren't interested in maintaining it.

I think the Macintosh proves that everyone can have a bitmapped display.

And once an intelligent robot exists, it is only a small step to a robot species - to an intelligent robot that can make evolved copies of itself.

I had almost rewritten all of the display code for windows, and that was when I gave up.

Interleaf is very nice. I expect there to be a lot of competition for programs like that.

I was surprised about vi going in, though, I didn't know it was in System V.

Today scientists, technologists, businessmen, engineers don't have any personal responsibility for the consequences of their actions.
