The advancement of technology continues to explode. Each technological innovation makes many more advances possible. More technology leads to more technology. In 1965, the co-founder of Intel, Gordon Moore, predicted that processing power would double every two years. Many predicted this could not continue for long. But it continues. Computing speeds and power have been […]
All progress is preceded by knowledge. To walk, one has to learn how to walk. To create a fire, one has to learn how to create a fire. To build a bridge, one has to know MANY things. One can learn by trial and error. But the primary way of acquiring knowledge is through communication. […]
The following are my own thoughts and opinions, and how they relate to ExoTech. Creating and enjoying simplicity makes things easier, reduces effort, allows action, and releases power. Deriving satisfaction from small achievements leads to bigger achievements. “Great acts are made up of small deeds.” – Lao Tzu Confronting difficulties makes things easier and releases […]
“Exo-” means external or outside. Any computer is an external extension of your ability to compute. But it is limited by its rigid, inflexible structure. ExoTech has found and removed at least 260 basic irrationalities from that structure. As a result, a whole new operating basis for computing has been revealed. And a revolutionary way […]

A house of cards is a structure created by stacking playing cards on top of each other. A “house of cards” is also an expression meaning a structure or argument built on a shaky foundation – it will collapse if a necessary element is removed. As I have mentioned before, in my opinion, many of […]
I recently realized more about the degree of suppression that exists in the world of computing. I already knew about the censorship and spying of big tech and the suppression of advanced technology. But I now have a fuller understanding of how this applies to computing itself. As our Founder and CEO Peter Warren stated, […]
There is a word called “ubiquitous.” It is an adjective pronounced yo͞o-bĭkáwĭ-təs. It means being or seeming to be everywhere, in all places, at the same time. A synonym for “ubiquitous” is “omnipresent,” which comes from a Latin word that means “everywhere.” An idea has no fixed location. It is not writing or printing on […]
What I am about to share with you is inspired by a short talk given by Neil Clark at our last Team meeting. As Neil indicated, software companies tend to be driven by greed at the expense of the consumer/user. They commonly make their software more complex and more difficult to use than necessary. And […]
The power elite consists of individuals with tremendous amounts of wealth and power. Eight men control half the wealth of the world. Six corporations control 90% of the media outlets in America. Big Tech is a name given to the largest, most dominant, information technology companies in the United States. In the last several decades, […]
