Quotes

\u201cMost of science is incremental. But there are these rare moments when fields of science have this explosion of activity and there\u2019s tons of low hanging fruit to be picked.\u201d

\u201cWe\u2019re trying to raise the level of how computation can be used by a much broader range of people and its working!\u201d

\u201cThe idea that space and time are the same kind of thing is basically wrong. It was a sort of mathematical gloss on top of Einsteins theory of relativity. The mathematics works on nicely, but on the conceptual level it\u2019s the wrong way to go.\u201d

\u2014Stephen Wolfram
