I think that autistic brains tend to be specialized brains. Autistic people tend to be less social. It takes a ton of processor space in the brain to have all the social circuits.

Science is not a heartless pursuit of objective information. It is a creative human activity, its geniuses acting more as artists than as information processors.

Scientifically, happiness is a choice. It is a choice about where your single processor brain will devote its finite resources as you process the world.

A food processor, or even one of those small bowls that fit on a stick blender, is a real treasure. No, that's not an overstatement.

Computers sort of came around through games and toys. And you know, the first computer most people had in the house may have been a computer to play 'Pong,' a little microprocessor embedded, and then other games that came after that.

I like stuff designed by dead people. The old designers. They always got it right because they didn't have to grow up with computers. All of the people that made the spoon and the dishes and the vacuum cleaner didn't have microprocessors and stuff. You could do a good design back then.

The more you read, the less apt you are to make a fool of yourself with your pen or word processor.

In the beginning was the Word. Then came the fucking word processor. Then came the thought processor. Then came the death of literature. And so it goes.

Science is not a heartless pursuit of objective information. It is a creative human activity its geniuses acting more as artists than as information processors.

Everyone makes pesto in a food processor. But the texture is better with a mortar and pestle and it's just as fast.

I've tried word processors but I think I'm too old a dog to use one.
