"It's difficult to judge the quality of someone's work," you tell me, "especially these days when so much is being published every day."

Amb la precaució de no caure en la paranoia, és una imprudència pensar que quelcom, per molt aberrant que ens sembli, no hagi d'ocórrer. La veritat és que la nostra visió és més circumscrita i restringida del que voldríem admetre i, el que és més, no necessàriament ha de ser compartida o entesa. Si no volem que passi res que ens acabi afectant, no hi ha més remei que prendre partit perquè allò que puguem témer no passi, essent alhora molt conscients de la visió divergent, o, no dels altres i que tampoc no es pot ser a totes les guerres o batalles (ni tampoc guanyar-les).

Ja ha començat l'any i encara no he acabat d'escriure tots els propòsits d'Any Nou. Suposo que faria trampa si els deixés llavors per l'any que ve

"The view that machines cannot give rise to surprises is due, I believe, to a fallacy to which philosophers and mathematicians are particularly subject. This is the assumption that as soon as a fact is presented to a mind all consequences of that fact spring into the mind simultaneously with it. It is a very useful assumption under many circumstances, but one too easily forgets that it is false."
Alan Turing: "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" (1950).
