I loved logic math computer programming. I loved systems and logic approaches. And so I just figured architecture is this perfect combination.

Another little known fact about Amazing Tennis - the computer opponents are modeled after real people. In an odd turn of events I joined a division 3 college tennis team at age 38.

There are a lot of people using technology that are playing to a click with backing vocals already stuck in there on some computerized thing that runs along in time to the show so they have these amazing vocals that are only partly the guys on stage producing them at the time.

I'm definitely the most tech-savvy in my family. My wife wouldn't have a clue as far as getting the computer working. All of my kids it's amazing. Like everybody's kids they're more savvy than I am probably.

Your car should drive itself. It's amazing to me that we let humans drive cars... It's a bug that cars were invented before computers.

I spend my life essentially alone at a computer. That doesn't change. I have the same challenges every day.

The way life manages information involves a logical structure that differs fundamentally from mere complex chemistry. Therefore chemistry alone will not explain life's origin any more than a study of silicon copper and plastic will explain how a computer can execute a program.

No one ever said on their deathbed 'Gee I wish I had spent more time alone with my computer'.

I started writing when I had three kids under the age of 4. I used to write every ten minutes I got to sit in front of a computer. Now when I have more time I function the same way: if it's writing time I write.

One of the great challenges of our age in which the tools of our productivity are also the tools of our leisure is to figure out how to make more useful those moments of procrastination when we're idling in front of our computer screens.

All we can do when we think of kids today is think of more hours of school earlier age at the computer and curfews. Who would want to grow up in that world?

A final word: I am not knowledgeable about the internet. I do not have a computer. I guess that at 74 years of age I don't have the patience to learn.

I'd like to talk about free markets. Information in the computer age is the last genuine free market left on earth except those free markets where indigenous people are still surviving. And that's basically becoming limited.
