If you board the wrong train, it is no use running along the corridor in the other direction.
There is no such thing as a quantum leap. There is only dogged persistence - and in the end you make it look like a quantum leap.
Hire inexperience. This year we plan to hire 200 engineers - half of whom are recent grads. Young people are not burdened by years of experience. They haven't learned - or been told - what is right or wrong. With engineering, there is no tried and tested path. You try, and fail, and fix, and fail again.
Engineering is treated with disdain, on the whole. It's considered to be rather boring and irrelevant, yet neither of those is true.
Engineers are behind the cars we drive, the pills we pop and the way we power our homes.
Anyone developing new products and new technology needs one characteristic above all else: hope.
Most robotic vacuum cleaners don't see their environment, have little suction, and don't clean properly. They are gimmicks. We've been developing a unique 360 vision system that lets our robot see where it is, where it has been, and where it is yet to clean. Vision, combined with our high speed digital motor and cyclone technology, is the key to achieving a high performing robot vacuum - a genuine labor saving device.
The best things in life are yours, if you can appreciate yourself.
Media scrutiny is a great trademark of the American political arena.
The media covers what's new - and millions of people dying is nothing new. So it stays in the background, where it's easier to ignore. But even when we do see it or read about it, it's difficult to keep our eyes on the problem. It's hard to look at suffering if the situation is so complex that we don't know how to help. And so we look away.
What might be a brave choice for you, for another person they may simply not experience fear.
