Real Time Computer

Famous quotes containing the words real, time and/or computer:

    In a real dark night of the soul it is always three o’clock in the morning, day after day.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    Gather ye rose-buds while ye may,
    Old Time is still a-flying:
    And this same flower that smiles to-day,
    To-morrow will be dying.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    The analogy between the mind and a computer fails for many reasons. The brain is constructed by principles that assure diversity and degeneracy. Unlike a computer, it has no replicative memory. It is historical and value driven. It forms categories by internal criteria and by constraints acting at many scales, not by means of a syntactically constructed program. The world with which the brain interacts is not unequivocally made up of classical categories.
    Gerald M. Edelman (b. 1928)
