“The word “hacker” has an unfairly negative
     connotation from being portrayed in the media
     as people who break into computers. In reality,
     hacking just means testing the boundaries of
     what can be done. Like most things, it can be
     used for good or bad, but the vast majority of
     hackers I’ve met tend to be idealistic people
     who want to have a positive impact on the
     world.”

“I feel like there are all these
                        opportunities in the world to use
                        technology to make people’s lives
                        better. At Google we’re attacking
                        maybe 0.1 percent of that space.
                        And all the tech companies
                        combined are only at like 1 percent.
                        That means there’s 99 percent virgin
                        territory.”

         CLOSING THOUGHTS



Tuesday, April 16, 13
“By being obsessed with success, students are
   afraid to fail, so they are reluctant to take difficult
   steps to master new material. Acknowledging that
   difficulty is a crucial part of learning could stop a
   vicious circle in which difficulty creates feelings of
   incompetence that in turn disrupts learning.”

   Frederique Autin & Jean-Claude Croizet
