"Hackers and painters" reading notes

First read this book, first turned to the fifth chapter "another Road", because at this time, I am tired of the current peak of work, eager to find

The road to some of the fleeing industries. Some things tell me that a road block is probably not the worst outcome,

When the heart to start reading, deeply impressed by the author's pre-judgment ability, the author casually "I expect Microsoft will introduce some kind of server and table

Desktop operating system that works exclusively with the servers it controls. At least we'll put the files on the server.

Users who need it can download it by themselves ... " Original:

"I expect Microsoft would develop some kind of server/desktop

Hybrid, where the operating system works together with servers
They control. At a minimum, files would be centrally available for

Reminds me of today's office365, and the latest version of WIN10 to integrate the Linux environment, so I re-read the book's release date:

Translated version of the first edition of April 2011, the English version was published in 2004. I think: "If a person can infer that more than 10 years or even decades after the world some

Do not think of many years ago in high school also will be in the Water Cup in the water from the 4 floor fell, large drops in the close to the ground when the performance and just see the same, may be

I missed the university physics reason, so far unclear the principle, but suddenly thought that if a person falling high altitude, near the ground will also have special

The feeling?

When faced with one thing, often confused by various appearances to see the real situation is not clear, and later read the "Hundred Years of programming language," just suddenly:

From a century-old perspective, many things will become clearer than ever before. Century is actually only a stage, the meaning of existence may not have to hundred years for

Limited, it is special in that it provides a new way of thinking, with the result to infer the process. Hundred years, a rather long time, enough to assume for a virtual

The desired result or goal, then the curve of thought can be pulled straight to a certain extent to obtain different (closer) results.

If one day the real hardware really no longer conforms to Moore's law, it has already reached a very high level.
