Computer Science is embarrassed by the computer.
From Alan Perlis
A year spent in artificial intelligence is enough to make one believe in God.
Fools ignore complexity. Pragmatists suffer it. Some can avoid it. Geniuses remove it.
We toast the Lisp programmer who pens his thoughts within nests of parentheses.
In software systems it is often the early bird that makes the worm.
It goes against the grain of modern education to teach students to program. What fun is there to making plans, acquiring discipline, organizing thoughts, devoting attention to detail, and learning to be self critical.
One man's constant is another man's variable.
Simplicity does not precede complexity, but follows it.
In computing, turning the obvious into the useful is a living definition of the word 'frustration'.
If a listener nods his head when you're explaining your program, wake him up.
