#humblebrag hubris

I'm so afraid of war I volunteered to serve in war zones- twice.

I'm the result when the +Terminator and +Mr.Spock have a love-child.

I was House before +Hugh Laurie  had an American accent.

I know more maths than +Sheldon Cooper  .

And if you think any of these are impressive, I'm all of them.

<mic drop>

I'm easy to work with...

I'm easy to work with... so long as I'm in charge.

One cannot be anything to anyone

until one is everything to oneself.

Greatness

There is nothing greater than a man unswayed by greatness.

Belief

Belief is the absence of critical thought in the presence of dogma.

The internet is the forever machine.

All your data ends up swirling the planet until the end of humanity.....

The preponderance of evidence disfavours your position.

Or in other words, you are full of shit.

Eschew the one true way

If only saying an idea once changed the world, then people would speak softly....instead the loudest words remain.

The 5% Solution

If life was 5% harder on the 1%, would that stop waiters from urinating in their vichysoisse?

Religion is the root of all sorts of evil.

89% of Billionaires maintain a To Do List: Do They Know Somethhing You Don't?

Yes;

Because they have some way of remembering that good idea,...five hours later...when they have time to act on it.

Ok, admit that was funny and please show me some likes and love.  This is my 40th post and if you want to read more show me you're interested.  Thanks for stopping by!

Young people

Young people are poor in two ways, they can't rub cents and sense together.

You can jump where you want to land...

 or you can be pushed where you don't. 

How you treat people

How you treat people that can do you no harm says more about you than how you treat people that can.

Honesty is ever a friend, secrecy is not.

A Billion Research Dollars

You get more value to society spending $100 million a year for ten years instead of spending $1 billion for one year.

Research is nonlinear, discoveries are not predictable in a classical engineering sense, as they draw on lots of factors to be uncovered. Time and understanding are needed. More discoveries, more patents, more journals will be made from having time to explore all possibilities.

Tomorrow's advances lie in yesterday's assumptions

From the many great works of man, human ability and effort can encompass only subsets of the true problem. We can only do and make so much individually. From where an inventor stops others will follow. Tomorrow's achievements are in the axioms, assumptions, or common knowledge of today.

Asymptotic Communication

If you are approaching a point, make it.
