> I just enjoy the speeches better by standing back a little bit. Actually I'm quite annoyed that Rich doesn't say anything about how important is to be able to forget facts, irreversibly filter things out and reinvent the wheel again. Imagine a huge database full of facts you're simply not interested in. What is it good for?
BTW there are stories about people not been able to forget. They remember every useless trivia, quarrel or conflict they ever experienced and they have to go over and over every good or bad memory just to recall things like "Did I meet you before or after 2005?". Pretty much like our databases: "select * from the 5TB-useless-stuff.txt what happened between BIG-BANG and NOW" Bost -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
