makes sense "Asian videos and eyeglasses" is software.
This reminds me of an introduction I had, they asked me "so, what do you do for living?"

... as it is a brilliant movie.
"project called the Stanford Study of Writing",
that is "Study of Writing in Stanford".
Nice to hear personal tech is good for Stanford,
keep in mind: the country, in large, is illiterate.

"Wirth's law" is more quality related, as in "crappy SW can benefit from faster HW".
"Gates's Law" is user-side observation, "speed of commercial software generally slows by fifty percent every 18 months thereby negating all the benefits of Moore's Law".
"Page's Law" is reflection on SW development of a single company: "software gets twice as slow every 18 months... Google plans to reverse this trend and optimize its code."
I wonder if anyone else noticed these differences.
Plenty of 60fps 3D games are out there...
although lots more barely hitting 30,20,10 fps with hardware they claim to support, e.g. Crysis/PC.
And it's not just complexity, granted 2D platformer is quite a bit simpler comparing to modern games, it's poor quality of product.
Come on, MSI is targeting PHBs.
Why would developers bother with downloading MSI?
PDF was enough for me.
Come on, the book is on design, i.e. it's an art book. It is all in the eye of the beholder.
Making text hard to read is just another way of failing at design.
Here're few absolutely non-falsifiable statements for you:
- There's no such thing as "fair use"
- There's no such thing as "original art"
- There's no such thing as "original invention"
As for TFA, case and point of YAGF.
