More From Tim O Reilly

If an open source product gets good enough, we'll simply take it. so the great thing about open source is nobody owns it - a company like oracle is free to take it for nothing, include it in our products and charge for support, and that's what we'll do. so it is not disruptive at all - you have to find places to add value. once open source gets good enough, competing with it would be insane. we don't have to fight open source, we have to exploit open source.
Fighting Support Insane
Confidence and empowerment are cousins in my opinion. empowerment comes from within and typically it's stemmed and fostered by self-assurance. to feel empowered is to feel free and that's when people do their best work. you can't fake confidence or empowerment.

Clothing sizes are weird, they go: small, medium, large and then extra large, extra extra large, extra extra extra large. something happened at large, they just gave up. they were like, 'i'm not doing any more adjectives; you just keep putting extras on there.' we could do better than that: small, medium, large, whoa, easy, slow down, stop it, interesting, american.
Interesting Adjectives Size
When everybody in a group is susceptible to similar biases, groups are inferior to individuals, because groups tend to be more extreme than individuals.
Groups Clubs Individual
If the various groups in america had been less selfish and had permitted different representatives from the groups to travel into foreign countries, and broaden their own scope, and come back and educate the movements they represented, not only would this have made the groups to which they belonged more enlightened and more worldly in the international sense, but it also would have given the independent african states abroad a better understanding of the groups in the united states, and what they stand for, what they represent.
Country Selfish Independent
"free markets" is a very general term. there are all sorts of problems that will emerge. free markets work best when the transaction between two individuals affects only those individuals. most often, a transaction between you and me affects a third party. that is the source of all problems for government. that is the source of all pollution problems, of the inequality problem. this reality ensures that the end of history will never come.

Similar Quotes
As in private life one differentiates between what a man thinks and says of himself and what he really is and does, so in historical struggles one must still more distinguish the language and the imaginary aspirations of parties from their real organism and their real interests, their conception of themselves from their reality.
Life Real Party
The republican party was just as scared of the tea party as the democrats were. we just didn't know it at the time.
Party Tea Scared
If you explore beneath shyness or party chit-chat, you can sometimes turn a dull exchange into an intriguing one. i've found this to be particularly true in the case of professors or intellectuals, who are full of fascinating information, but need encouragement before they'll divulge it.
Encouragement Women Party
The two aims of the party are to conquer the whole surface of the earth and to extinguish once and for all the possibility of independent thought. there are therefore two great problems which the party is concerned to solve. one is how to discover, against his will, what another human being is thinking, and the other is how to kill several hundred million people in a few seconds without giving warning beforehand.
