Sometimes smart thinkers just don&#8217;t know when to stop, and they create these absurd, all-encompassing, high-level pictures of the universe that are all good and fine, but don&#8217;t actually mean anything at all. </a></span></p>http://ecbp.net/post/23629966780http://ecbp.net/post/23629966780Wed, 23 May 2012 14:51:45 -0700<p><span><a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/apple/9283706/Jonathan-Ive-simplicity-isnt-simple.html" target="_blank">Simplicity is not the absence of clutter, that&#8217;s a consequence of simplicity.

And what preoccupies us is that sense of care, and what our products will not speak to is a schedule, what our products will not speak to is trying to respond to some corporate or competitive agenda. </a></span></p>http://ecbp.net/post/23616610638http://ecbp.net/post/23616610638Wed, 23 May 2012 10:54:16 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m36g2iSuj61qz5248o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://ecbp.net/post/21964955578http://ecbp.net/post/21964955578Fri, 27 Apr 2012 23:44:41 -0700<p><a href="http://techcrunch.com/2012/04/19/an-interview-with-millenium-technology-prize-finalist-linus-torvalds/" target="_blank">I like trying to make things work better.
