Quote You are all computer scientists.You know what FINITE AUTOMATA can do.You know what TURING MACHINES can do.For example, Finite Automata can add but not multiply.Turing Machines can compute any computable function.Turing machines are incredibly more powerful than Finite Automata.Yet the only difference between a FA and a TM is that the TM, unlike the FA, has paper and pencil.Think about it. It tells you something about the power of writing.Without writing, you are reduced to a finite automaton.With writing you have the extraordinary power of a Turing machine

It is interesting that sometimes language is the restriction to our exploration in science.

It's kind of hard to imagine how life reaches the end until you are really facing it. It all started in this semester, maybe I shouldn't have been to gym that often (twice a week...??!!). There were ominous signs, like the aching of the left shoulder after exercises, which were totally ignored. It's really pathetic, sometimes, when I feel that I should dedicate myself to computer industry, only to find that I cannot bear the flickering (so does Zoran...we are among one third of the whole polpulation on earch who also share the symptom) and physical pressure. How absurd is the world.

That which may perhaps make such equality incredible, is but a vain conceipt of ones owne wisdome, which almost all men think that they have in a greater degree, than the Vulger; that is, than all men but themselves, and a few others, whom by Fame, or for concurring with themselves, they approve. For such is the nature of men, that howsoever they may acknowledge many others to be more witty, or more eloquent, or more learned; Yet they will hardly believe there be many so wise as themselves: For they see their own wit at hand, and other mens at a distance. But this proveth rather tha men are in that point equall, than unequall. For there is not ordinarily a greater signe of the equall distribution of any thing, than that every man is contended with his share.
