arteries artificial fire industry people reality resistant shifted strong suits
People think that the industry is dying, but in reality it is as strong as ever; it has just shifted in a new direction. Most people think of textiles as clothes, and that is all they know, but it is everything from artificial arteries to chemically resistant suits for fire fighters.
real greek literature
Greek mathematics is the real thing. The Greeks first spoke a language which modern mathematicians can understand... So Greek mathematics is 'permanent', more permanent even than Greek literature.
real numbers achievement
I count Maxwell and Einstein, Eddington and Dirac, among "real" mathematicians. The great modern achievements of applied mathematics have been in relativity and quantum mechanics, and these subjects are at present at any rate, almost as "useless" as the theory of numbers.
reality thinking mind
317 is a prime, not because we think so, or because our minds are shaped in one way rather than another, but because it is so, because mathematical reality is built that way.
real silly exercise
If a man is in any sense a real mathematician, then it is a hundred to one that his mathematics will be far better than anything else he can do, and that it would be silly if he surrendered any decent opportunity of exercising his one talent in order to do undistinguished work in other fields. Such a sacrifice could be justified only by economic necessity of age.
science reality common-sense
The mathematician is in much more direct contact with reality. ... [Whereas] the physicist's reality, whatever it may be, has few or none of the attributes which common sense ascribes instinctively to reality. A chair may be a collection of whirling electrons.
art real justified
Real mathematics must be justified as art if it can be justified at all.
brings closer expression felt instead last opening people strike taking vote
We felt this was more of a provocation than anything else, and that it brings us closer to a strike instead of taking us back. Some people felt this was a tit-for-tat from our strike vote, but the strike vote was an expression of the frustration we felt for two years. It was a last resort, not an opening salvo.
people saw smoke
We saw other people going crazy. It was really scary, and we saw the smoke down the hallway.
few seem tried
I've tried to get out a few times, but I always seem to come back.
create fairly renewed time
It would be fairly costly to do. It would be very time consuming. It would create a kind of renewed rancor and divisiveness publicly.
believe devices driven early issue music piracy playing predict safe secure security
The security issue is driven by fear. I don't believe SDMI will come out with any prohibition for playing back the music that's already out there. It's too early to predict how piracy will be minimized. There will be devices with no security that are just as safe as secure ones.
additional ban closely conflict efforts include including paying reform senator support taken travel trips
The senator will support reform efforts that include more transparency about what trips are being taken and who is paying for the trips. He will also look closely at additional travel restrictions, including a ban on travel that is deemed extracurricular or a conflict of interest.
bit
I see things a little bit differently now because of my son.
