Cory Doctorow Quotes

What I've Got Here Are My Own Constraints. I'm Challenging Myself, Using Found Objects And Making Stuff That Throws All This Computational Capacity At, You Know, These Trivial Problems, Like Car-driving Elmo Clusters And Seashell Toaster-robots. We Have So Much Capacity That The Trivia Expands To Fill It. And All That Capacity Is Junk-capacity, It's Leftovers. There's Enough Computational Capacity In A Junkyard To Launch A Space-program, And That's By Design. Remember The IPod? Why Do You Think It Was So Prone To Scratching And Going All Gunky After A Year In Your Pocket? Why Would Apple Build A Handheld Technology Out Of Materials That Turned To Shit If You Looked At Them Cross-eyed? It's Because The IPod Was Only Meant To Last A Year!
