Prolific programmers contribute to certain disaster.

Indeed, the woes of Software Engineering are not due to lack of tools, or proper management, but largely due to lack of sufficient technical competence.

A good designer must rely on experience, on precise, logic thinking; and on pedantic exactness. No magic will do.

In the practical world of computing, it is rather uncommon that a program, once it performs correctly and satisfactorily, remains unchanged forever.

A primary cause of complexity is that software vendors uncritically adopt almost any feature that users want.

C++ is an insult to the human brain

Time pressure gradually corrupts an engineer's standard of quality and perfection. It has a detrimental effect on people as well as products

Increasingly, people seem to misinterpret complexity as sophistication, which is baffling -- the incomprehensible should cause suspicion rather than admiration.

Software gets slower faster than hardware gets faster. (Or, sometimes known by] Grove [the head of Intel] giveth and Gates [the head of Microsoft] taketh away.)

Age should not have its face lifted, but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character.

Fear desire hope still push us on toward the future.

No matter what time of year it's always funny when a person walks by me dressed in religious garb and I say Happy Halloween!

Divorces are made in heaven.

The momentum of production keeps you from giving up, so it's really the editing and writing phases where things can look bleakest.

In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally start living.
