Quotes

...'Supercomputing has given us the most powerful tool in the history of civilisation,' Gore said. "it has become a third basic form of knowledge creation, alongside inductive reasoning and deductive reasoning. computational science, in some ways a blend of the first two, allows us to vastly extend our ability to understand phenomena and complex realities, and investigate new complex realities that would never be possible except for the ability conferred upon us by supercomputing." Because of the way humans evolved, we are conditioned to react to immediate threats, such as animal predators or other humans who are warlike, Gore said...
