Optimization hinders evolution. Everything should be built top-down, except the first time. Simplicity does not precede complexity, but follows it.

Men's minds were too valuable to waste on tasks that a few thousand transistors, some photo-electric cells, and a cubic

Men's minds were too valuable to waste on tasks that a few thousand transistors, some photo-electric cells, and a cubic meter of printed circuits could perform.

Lo mejor es siempre enemigo de lo bueno

If I designed a computer with 200 chips, I tried to design it with 150. And then I would try to design it with 100. I just tried to find every trick I could in life to design things real tiny.

As you will find in multivariable calculus, there is often a number of solutions for any given problem.

If you seek and accept only the best, you are a maximizer.

conformations, or fit. Thus the rationale for structure-based design: to optimize the shapes of drug molecules. "Connecting the dots," Aldrich liked to call it in a heroic oversimplification that made some of the scientists at the tables wince. In effect, the goal is the very opposite of screening: building the molecules one wants rather than fishing for approximations in nature. The advantages of such drugs presumably

Instead of me going out and having eight shot attempts with six 3s, let me see if I can have just four 3s and attack the basket and try to get fouls and rebound better.

Making everything more efficient should make everybody happier.

Hardware works best when it matters the least.

In general, no engineer hates higher performance.

Good website practice and optimizing for conversion usually makes for good search engine optimization. These work together to ensure you drive quality traffic and can persuade that traffic to help you meet your business goals.

We need to work together to fairly assess and improve the long-term economic and health value - and affordability - of all components of the healthcare system, including hospitalizations, drugs, devices, and other interventions, to optimize our health investment decisions.

If the system should not need parts now, the worker should not produce because you are just absorbing instead of producing.

We have to have workers that will produce more and will stop work when it is not needed.

More efficient workers are always in an employer's best interest.
