Parables about Parabolas

I'm Noah Tye, and this is where I share the things I encounter that stick out to me. Think of it as a collection of newspaper clippings from the web. You can take a look at my own work here.

    Two hundred years from now we will have decided that computers aren’t interesting, that they are really boring, and we will move on to something else. It will just be a technology in the background like refrigeration technology now.

    This quote by Guy Steele comes from the panel discussion at the end of Don Knuth’s Things a Computer Scientist Rarely Talks About.
