Quotes by Technology Technology has become as ubiquitous as the air we breathe, so we are no longer conscious of its presence. Godfrey Reggio breathetechnologyair What I’m trying to show is that the main event today is not seen by those of us that are living it… So it’s not the effect of [technology], it is that everything exists with-in [its milieu]. It's not that we use technology, we live technology. Technology has become as ubiquitous as the air we breathe, so we are no longer conscious of its presence. Godfrey Reggio technologyairtrying The North Korean regime remains one of the world's leading proliferator of missile technology, including transfers to Iran and Syria. The transfer of nuclear weapons or material by North Korea to states or non-state entities would be considered a grave threat to the United States, and we would hold North Korea fully accountable of the consequences of such action. George W. Bush koreairantechnology [...] any fool can make a discovery. Every baby has to discover more in the first years of its life than Roger Bacon ever discovered in his laboratory. George Bernard Shaw technologybabyscience Nothing you see on the Internet is mine unless it comes from one of my albums, books, HBO specials, or appeared on my website. George Carlin hbotechnologybook I remember the difficulty we had in the beginning replacing magnetic cores in memories and eventually we had both cost and performance advantages. But it wasn't at all clear in the beginning. Gordon Moore technologybusinessmemories With engineering, I view this year's failure as next year's opportunity to try it again. Failures are not something to be avoided. You want to have them happen as quickly as you can so you can make progress rapidly. Gordon Moore learningtechnologybusiness Moore's Law - The number of transistors and resistors on a chip doubles every 24 months Gordon Moore technologylawnumbers It is extremely unlikely that anyone coming out of school with a technical degree will go into one area and stay there. Today's students have to look forward to the excitement of probably having three or four careers. Gordon Moore technologyjobsschool Take, therefore, what modern technology is capable of: the power of our moral sense allied to the power of communications and our ability to organize internationally. That, in my view, gives us the first opportunity as a community to fundamentally change the world. Gordon Brown communicationtechnologyopportunity From then on, when anything went wrong with a computer, we said it had bugs in it. Grace Hopper bugscomputertechnology We've tended to forget that no computer will ever ask a new question. Grace Hopper computertechnologyforget Actually, if you go back to what Marx said in The Communist Manifesto over a hundred years ago, when in talking about the constant revolutions in technology, he ended that paragraph by saying, "All that is sacred is profaned, all that is solid melts into air, and men and women are forced to face with sober senses our conditions of life and our relations with our kind." We're at that sort of turning point in human history. Grace Lee Boggs technologytalkingmen Technology is a many-headed monster and perhaps it would be better to regress to a safer past and avoid technological change; it is tempting to think like that. Graciela Chichilnisky technologypastthinking The first reaction to trauma is denial, then comes anger and finally, acceptance. I think the US is still between denial and anger, and I hope we will reach acceptance because almost perversely, right now, only the US has the technology that is needed for global economic change. Graciela Chichilnisky technologyacceptancethinking CO2 from air can replace petroleum: it can produce plastics and acetate, it can produce carbon fibers that replace metals and clean hydrocarbons, such as synthetic gasoline. We can use CO2 to desalinate water, enhance the production of vegetables and fruit in greenhouses, carbonate our beverages and produce biofertilizers that enhance the productivity of the soil without poisoning it. Carbon negative technology is absolutely needed now. Graciela Chichilnisky technologyvegetablesair I worked in information technology and academia for a long time and met many people who were better with things and ideas than with people. Graeme Simsion technologylongideas The Deep Flight Challenger technology is a game-changer for ocean exploration. Graham Hawkes technologyoceangames Technology is at the forefront of everything these days - communication, work. Its amazing and scary at the same time how robots have evolved, but I find it hard to believe that robots will completely rule the world. Not in my lifetime anyway. Graham McTavish communicationtechnologybelieve Just the idea to have everything you need essentially stored in one piece of portable technology is very exciting.
