“We must be both rational and intellectual, both analytic and imaginative, utilizing both statistics and insight.” ——Lloyd Reynolds, Reed professor & calligraphy instructor
I wish everyone could taste the excitement, the intensity that lies at the heart of true education, whether it takes place reading Plato’s Republic on the Great Lawn or wrestling with Zen koans on a TriMet bus. I wish everyone could have the time and space to kindle the spark of inspiration into a fire. And when it comes to reading—and writing—job applications, I wish everyone could remember that we, too, are unfinished projects, first drafts, rough cuts, works in progress. The main difference is that some of us have been going at it longer than others.

Professor Richard E. Crandall的纪念文章“Never be so busy as not to think of others.” ——Mother Teresa
“I want to learn more and more to see as beautiful what is necessary in things; then I shall be one of those who make things beautiful. I do not want to wage war against what is ugly. I do not want to accuse.” ——Friedrich Nietzsche
Designing a product is keeping five thousand things in your brain and fitting them all together in new and different ways to get what you want. And every day you discover something new that is a new problem or a new opportunity to fit these things together a little differently. And it’s that process that is the magic.

I've never had a distinction in my mind between those two types of people. They've just been to me people who pursue different paths but basically kind of headed to the same goal which is to express something of what they perceive to be the truth around them so that others can benefit by it.
The Newton was a terrific idea, but it was too far ahead of its time. The Newton actually saved Apple from going bankrupt. Most people don’t realize in order to build Newton, we had to build a new generation microprocessor. We joined together with Olivetti and a man named Herman Hauser, who had started Acorn computer over in the U.K. out of Cambridge university. And Herman designed the ARM processor, and Apple and Olivetti funded it. Apple and Olivetti owned 47 percent of the company and Herman owned the rest. It was designed around Newton, around a world where small miniaturized devices with lots of graphics, intensive subroutines and all of that sort of stuff… when Apple got into desperate financial situation, it sold its interest in ARM for $800 million. If it had kept it, the company went on to become an $8 or $10 billion company. It’s worth a lot more today. That’s what gave Apple the cash to stay alive.

有种中华特有的美感“Think Different":So hopefully what you’ve seen here today are some beginning steps that give you some confidence that we, too, are going to think differently, and serve the people that have been buying our products since the beginning. Because a lot of times people think that they’re crazy. But in that craziness, we see genius, and those are the people we’re making tools for.

撒切尔夫人曾说:你不要担心中国,因为中国只能出口玩具、计算机和电视机,不能出口思想。
中国人自古以来,春秋时好一些,从汉代以后,膝软如棉,脸厚如铁。凡是膝盖软如棉的人必定脸皮厚如铁。什么都可以不要,脸皮能不厚吗?什么东西成堆?凡是没有力量的东西成堆,绵羊成堆,老虎狮子从来都是独居的。我希望你们成为学术界的老虎和狮子,不要成为绵羊。

原文地址在 Freebuf ,后来已经被删除 Wayback Machine 备份 近期,黑客 Phineas Fisher在pastebin.com上讲述了入侵Hacking Team的过程,以下为其讲述的原文情况,文中附带有相关文档、工具及网站的链接,请在安全环境下进行打开,并合理合法使用。作者部分思想较为激进,也请以辩证的观点看待之。 1、序言 在这里,可能你会注意到相比于前面的一个版本,这个版本的内容及语言有了一些变化,因为这将是最后一个版本了 [1] 。对于黑客技术,英语世界中已经有了许多书籍,讲座,指南以及关于黑客攻击的知识。在那个世界,有许多黑客比我优秀,但他们埋没了他们的天赋,而为所谓的“防护”服务商(如Hacking Team之流的),情报机构服务工作。黑客文化作为一项非主流文化诞生于美国,但它现在只保留了它本质的魅力,其他均被同化了。从黑客的本质出发,至少他们可以穿着一件T恤,把头发染成蓝色,用自己的黑客的名字,随意 洒脱 地做着自己喜欢的事件,而当他们为别人(前文所指的 Hacking Team及情报机构 )工作的时候,会感觉自己像个反抗者。 如果按照传统的方式,你不得不潜入办公室偷偷拿到文件[2],或者你不得不持枪抢劫银行。但现在你仅仅需要一台笔记本,躺在床上动动手指便可做得这一切[3][4]。像CNT在入侵伽玛集团(Gamma Group)之后说的,“让我们以一种新的斗争方式向前迈进吧”[5]。 [ 1 ] http: / /pastebin.com/raw .php?i=cRYvK4jb [ 2 ] https: / /en.wikipedia.org/wiki /Citizens%27_Commission_to_Investigate_the_FBI [3] http:/ /www.aljazeera.com/news /2015/ 09/algerian-hacker-hero-hoodlum- 15092108 3914167 .html [ 4 ] https: / /securelist.com/files /2015/ 02 /Carbanak_APT_eng.pdf [ 5 ] http: / /madrid.cnt.es/noticia /consideraci...
