3 December 2020 Larry Wall Post-Modernism was a reaction against Modernism. It came quite early to music and literature, and a little later to architecture. And I think it’s still coming to computer science.
3 December 2020 Karl Marx The product of mental labor – science – always stands far below its value, because the labor-time necessary to reproduce it has no relation at all to the labor-time required for its original production.

3 December 2020 Herbert Simon One of the first rules of science is if somebody delivers a secret weapon to you, you better use it.
3 December 2020 Eric Ries Except in very narrow cases, where there’s breakthrough science that needs patent production, worrying about competitors is a waste of time. If you can’t out iterate someone who is trying to copy you, you’re toast anyway.

3 December 2020 John Ruskin The work of science is to substitute facts for appearances, and demonstrations for impressions.
