"In terms of work I've always had a Bad Attitude in that I won't work anywhere which requires me to work strict hours or follow a dress code. I don't know if that's an Asperger's thing or not, I think it's just being reasonable."
"One thing about school - I always had this attitude that I was in school to learn, and attempted to do whatever was involved in that process, while school had this attitude that I was there to earn grades, which I couldn't care less about. Unsurprisingly, my grades weren't very good."

"The mark of a mature programmer is willingness to throw out code you spent time on when you realize it's pointless"
"The trick is to fix the problem you have, rather than the problem you want."
"Technology is not a panacea. I refuse to work on technology to track users, analyze usage patterns, watermark information, censor, detect drug use, or eavesdrop. I am not naive enough to think any of those technologies could enable a 'compromise'."
"Things which any idiot could write usually have the quality of having been written by an idiot."
"When you're a connoiseur you look for interesting rather than good."
