Energy innovation is not a nationalistic game. Bill Gates
Energy is actually harder; it takes more time to get a product, but if you do it’s a very, very big market and the constraints of doing that in a clean way are more obvious all the time. Bill Gates
Eradications are special. Zero is a magic number. You either do what it takes to get to zero and you’re glad you did it; or you get close, give up and it goes back to where it was before, in which case you wasted all that credibility, activity, money that could have been applied to other things. Bill Gates
Even for the diseases we don’t focus on, cancer, heart disease, you’re going to be way better off being sick 10 years from now than any time in the past. Bill Gates
Even in some of our vaccine areas, like an AIDS vaccine, things have taken longer than we expected, but we have the pipeline of tools. The biological information that we have that gives us insights is fantastic. Bill Gates
Even when I wrote Basic myself the day before I burned it into a computer I wasn’t making design changes. I didn’t have a testing team. I did all the testing myself. And there was no project methodology or schedule that, there was the notion of coming to a close means testing a lot at the end and making very few changes. Bill Gates
Even with cameras being very cheap, one thing that researchers noticed was that you look really bad in a videoconference image because the lighting is bad and you get shadows and things. Bill Gates
Eventually we’ll be able to sequence the human genome and replicate how nature did intelligence in a carbon-based system. Bill Gates
Eventually you won’t think of ‘the Internet business.’ You’ll think of it more like news, weather, sports, but even that taxonomy isn’t clear. Bill Gates
