| 26f0f95 | When it came time to renegotiate the price, Hoff made a critical recommendation to Noyce, one that helped create a huge market for general-purpose chips and assured that Intel would remain a driver of the digital age.

In return for giving Busicom a good price, Noyce insisted that Intel retain the rights to the new chip and be allowed to license it to ot.. | Walter Isaacson | ||

Like an elegant mathematical equation, they are expressions of the glories o.. | Walter Isaacson | ||

| 8ded095 | Einstein's discovery of special relativity involved an intuition based on a decade of intellectual as well as personal experiences.9 The most important and obvious, I think, was his deep understanding and knowledge of theoretical physics. He was also helped by his ability to visualize thought experiments, which had been encouraged by his education in Aarau. Also, there was his grounding in philosophy: from Hume and Mach he had developed a s.. | Walter Isaacson | ||

For all its momentous import, it may be one of the most spunky and enjoyable papers in all of science. Most of its insights are conveyed in words and vivid thought experiments, rather than in complex equations. There is some math involved, but it is mainly what a good high.. | Walter Isaacson | ||

Computing machines will do the routinizable work that must be done to prepare the way for insights and decisions in technical and scientific thinking." | Walter Isaacson | ||
