Outside of medicine and nanotechnology uses, graphics and gaming have stolen my grand kids and their time to be reading Huck Finn. They are consumed. And by and large with nothing. Useless. I'm resentful - and envious.

But in ways I can't fathom it assists in the world of mathematics. So charge on McDuff - and Mr Huang.

I was exposed to computers and Fortran c. 1963 and punchcard machines and all manner of electronics before that, but not having any clear sense of what I wanted to do with it, nor, I'd have to say, a primarily mathemtical mind, I never did more than to design databases and reporting requirements. While I do see the utility of graphics applications, most of what I see virtual stuff useful for is in training and modeling. I do not know what CUDA, which tries to apply the multi-threaded approach more generally, would do to change that.

The difference between the way ppl want to use computers can be seen as a fundamental difference in the approach to science or the world in general. A Baconian view of science in which tracking and recording everything about everything, really does nothing to help anyone to make a decision about the importance of anything, as, for instance, the intelligence community so amply illustrates. But you would not want to embrace the idea that therefore no information is of any value, either. Nobody with any sense attempts to know everything, but only forms hypotheses to test. Life is a process of discovery, and you only need, or can acquire enough information to get you from one decision point to the next. Any more is not only not cost effective and suffers from diminishing returns, it removes one from life, itself. You cannot know relationships from every perspective simultaneously anyhow, and you cannot know purpose for sure until after the fact, when it is no longer purposeful.
