Robots are always part of the future. Little bits of that future break off and become part of the present, but when that happens, those bits cease to be “robots.” In 1945, a modern dishwasher would have been a miracle, as exotic as the space-age appliances in The Jetsons. But now, it’s just a dishwasher

“Entrepreneurs, doing something that matters to you more than money is a great way to succeed because even if you don’t succeed, the world will be in a better place.”
-Tim O’Reilly, founder and CEO of O’Reilly Media

Old/New -- What is the oldest O'Reilly book you still have? What is the newest? Pictured here is Jon Johns 1st, TCP/IP from 1998 and the newest Creating Apps in Kivy. Share your pictures.
Have you considered adding - or at least Photoshopping - googly eyes to any of the O'Reilly books? Most of their books - though not all of the books on the site - have interesting animals on the covers ... tag them as something like "O'Googly" :-) - Len
Like this?
Some of the saddest moments of my childhood were picking up one of your O’Reilly books, only to be disappointed to find that the cool animal on the cover appeared nowhere inside.

If we’re going to get science policy right, it’s really important for us to study the economic benefit of open access and not accept the arguments of incumbents. Existing media companies claim that they need ever stronger and longer copyright protection and new, draconian laws to protect them, and meanwhile, new free ecosystems, like the Web, have actually led to enormous wealth creation and enormous new opportunities for social value. And yes, they did in fact lead in some cases to the destruction of incumbents, but that’s the kind of creative destruction that we should celebrate in the economy. We have to accept that, particularly in the area of science, there’s an incredible opportunity for open access to enable new business models.
Tim O’Reilly on "the Clothesline Paradox", timely and enormously important. (via explore-blog)
Money is like gasoline during a road trip. You don’t want to run out of gas on your trip, but you’re not doing a tour of gas stations.

Writing code is not most programmers’ primary task http://oreil.ly/1cnbf9D
These ideas require looking at a garbage can or a streetlamp as a node in a software system. In turn, the companies that make them need to think of themselves not as organizations that stamp steel, mold plastic, or forge iron, but companies that develop software. That organizational change is happening, and corporations that don’t get it will be left behind.

ATMs increased the demand for bank tellers. In other cases, the work shifts to new occupations: there are fewer switchboard operators, but more receptionists; there are fewer typographers, but more graphic designers. As a whole, the number of jobs in office and sales occupations using computers has grown, not shrunk.
