Program Quotes
-
We do not take into account the value of the stream. We see the number of streams as a measure of consumer demand, not the value. As it is, we think streams are under-monetized, and we are complaining loudly about that. If the value of a stream changes, we won't alter the count because we don't want to alter the history of the program because that would impact these milestone achievements.

The program is anarchic, irreverent and definitely not suitable for family viewing -- perfect for the Internet.

Much of America is now in need of an equivalent of Mrs. Thatcher's privatization program in 1980s Britain, or post-Soviet Eastern Europe's economic liberalization in the early Nineties. It's hard to close down government bodies, but it should be possible to sell them off. And a side benefit to outsourcing the Bureau of Government Agencies and the Agency of Government Bureaus is that you'd also be privatizing public-sector unions, which are the biggest and most direct assault on freedom, civic integrity, and fiscal solvency.

The programmer, who needs clarity, who must talk all day to a machine that demands declarations, hunkers down into a low-grade annoyance. It is here that the stereotype of the programmer, sitting in a dim room, growling from behind Coke cans, has its origins. The disorder of the desk, the floor; the yellow Post-It notes everywhere; the whiteboards covered with scrawl: all this is the outward manifestation of the messiness of human thought. The messiness cannot go into the program; it piles up around the programmer.

I think it speaks volumes for not only our soccer program at Hilton Head High, but student athletes at Hilton Head High. That they're definitely concerned with in-the-classroom performance as well as on-the-field performance.

This is great, and as much as anything, it'll change the perception of our program. What you write about it may be a little bit different. Other than that, what we do in our program is going to matter more than anything.
Bob Stoops

Von Neumann languages do not have useful properties for reasoning about programs. Axiomatic and denotational semantics are precise tools for describing and understanding conventional programs, but they only talk about them and cannot alter their ungainly properties. Unlike von Neumann languages, the language of ordinary algebra is suitable both for stating its laws and for transforming an equation into its solution, all within the "language."

Much of my work has come from being lazy. I didn't like writing programs, and so, when I was working on the IBM 701 (an early computer), writing programs for computing missile trajectories, I started work on a programming system to make it easier to write programs.

Medical education is not just a program for building knowledge and skills in its recipients... it is also an experience which creates attitudes and expectations.
Abraham Flexner
-
Fans worried about this program serving as a steppingstone for coaches need not think that any more. This proves it's different than it used to be. I don't think it's a steppingstone anymore.

We're concentrating on St. John's and what we're trying to do to build our program. We're trying to get our guys to play at the top level, and we're moving in that direction.
J. M. Roberts
