The wall is the one said executives were frequently concussed by banging their heads against until they became dysfunctional enough to become executives.
«While I complain of being able to see only a shadow of the past, I may be insensitive to reality as it is now, since I'm not at a stage of development where I'm capable of seeing it. A few hundred years later another traveler despairing as myself, may mourn the disappearance of what I may have seen, but failed to see.» Claude Levi-Strauss (Tristes Tropiques, 1955)

As we look to build squishy, human-friendly machines that have the look and feel of soft natural organisms, we need to look beyond the rigid materials used to create electrical switches and circuits. Sorry, I flushed the computer down the drain

Look to your right, look to your left. If they're not under attack, maybe you are.

This is why I claim that you do not own your data unless the data are sitting on a server that is under your physical control. Any entity with valuable IP would have to be insane to put it anywhere else.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
