I believe that mycelium is the neurological network of nature. Interlacing mosaics of mycelium infuse habitats with information-sharing membranes. These membranes are aware, react to change, and collectively have the long-term health of the host environment in mind.
The CW is a very fashion-oriented network and they like their stars to look a certain way. I like that, but at the same time, I need Nikita to be toned down a bit. You can’t draw too much attention to Nikita because she’s an assassin.
The interesting thing about the TLC network is that they were interested in following me, not leading me.
Think about when you listen to a song on the radio. You are not paying for it; it’s not illegal to do it, because the rights have been paid for on top, beforehand, by the radio station, by the network. We have to find exactly the same kind of system with the Internet.
I don’t belong to any social network, and I don’t even message much. In fact, most of the time, I don’t even use my mobile phone.
Traditional models of work only let us cross out the needs on the very bottom of the pyramid – basic sustenance. On the flipside, independent employment within the network of the new sharing economy addresses our needs for a sense of community and belonging, autonomy and respect, creativity and problem solving.
There is just one exception to the FCC’s no-throttling rule – if a company can prove that throttling is ‘reasonable network management.’
In India, we have the global services HQ, R&D centres, global network operating centres, global manufacturing, and product management – India is not just a market but a country we use for extended NSN.
When a network passes, you really mourn the show. The official state of grief in Hollywood is saying you’re taking around a dead pilot.
Omidyar Network first supported Africa Check in 2014 when they were a team of just three dedicated people intent on building a more fact-based environment for public debate in South Africa.
Here’s my goal: I want to make a seriously dark show, and not on a network that has ever done that.
What is special about VOIP is that it’s just another thing you can do on the Internet, whereas it is the only thing – or nearly the only thing with the exception of the dial-up modem and fax – that you can do on the public switched telephone network.
Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei and Assad are two sides of the same terror coin. Letting Assad continue to wield lethal power means that Tehran’s terror network – from Hezbollah to the Houthis – will persist in threatening the West.
I don’t mean this grandly, but it was never my intention to live in L.A. and do a big network show.
When you make the judgement as a network that there are only three candidates, you are censoring points of view.
Being Orthodox Jewish is kind of like being raised on like network sitcoms.
I don’t send and receive messages on Snapchat; I never have. Stories is the only feature I use. I think of them becoming a more dynamic social network, and I think it’s great.
These activists who support immigrants inadvertently become part of this international human-smuggling network.
I don’t think ‘Sugar Man’ is a music doc any more than ‘The Social Network’ is about computers. It just happens to have the best soundtrack ever.
The Arab spring that began in 2010 was driven by the educated youth who were connected to the outside world. They had visions of liberal politics derived from social networks. They used innovative means to spread awareness and to network among activists.
There’s a bit of a problem. The script that I like, the network doesn’t like. The script that they like, I don’t like.
I am suggesting that we recognize that in network and interface research there is something as profound (and potential wild) as Artificial Intelligence.
Flip through the channels, and there is no denying it: The world of cable news – and their network chat-show brethren – is very, very white.
Some people say the network is the computer. We believe the display is the computer. Anywhere there’s a pixel, that’s where we want to be.
Among young people, often a key factor in them committing suicide is the trauma of transient relationships. They throw themselves into a friendship or network of friendships, then it collapses and they’re desolate.
Revolt is designed to be a home for the next generation of musical artists, and we are investing in the artists and fans of the future. Revolt is for artists, by artists. This won’t just be the P. Diddy network.
The smart way to improve broadband is not to junk the existing network but to make the most of it. It’s to let a competitive market deliver the speeds that people need at an affordable price with government improving infrastructure in the areas where market competition won’t deliver it.
I respect the hell out of everyone who does a network show. That is a marathon. It’s so many episodes, and it can be a meat grinder. Anyone making a network show, and on top of that making a very good network show, that’s an insane feat of Herculean endurance and fortitude.
When text messaging first came out, you could only text within your network, whatever operator you had. It seems silly now, but once those walls came down, all sorts of applications and services were built on top of that. It ended up being good for everybody.
The heart and soul of network programming is series programming, the weekly repetition of characters you like having in your house.
It’s ironic, really, because I’ve spent the bulk of my career making my living in a very commercial realm: network television. And yet, my sensibilities don’t necessarily line up with how I pay my rent.
I am part of a network of people monitoring what’s happening at ancient sites in Iraq and Syria – from space. We can see clearly the destruction.
When David Fincher called me up a few years ago and said, ‘Hey, I’d like you to score this film ‘The Social Network,’ I said, ‘I’m flattered, but I really don’t have any real experience scoring films, and I’d rather not screw it up on a high-profile project. And I like you and I don’t want to compromise our friendship.’
It was a presidential election year, and as a member of a consortium of Ivy League radio stations, we participated in ‘network’ coverage of election night.
Working for CNN, you help set the agenda for decision makers and industry leaders simply by doing your job. What the network covers and how we cover it affects people. I am not naive enough to believe I work in some ‘pure’ news vacuum.
Many of the network television shows have done takeoffs on ‘Family Circus,’ including ‘David Letterman,’ ‘Friends,’ ‘Roseanne,’ and others, and, in my estimation the use of them is a compliment to the popularity of the feature, which just by mentioning it’s name sets up the image of a warm, loving family-type feature.
We continued the hard work of integrating TWA, because at that time we still thought an efficient connecting hub in St. Louis could be a profitable addition to our network.
I’ve avoided doing a network comedy, because I wouldn’t get my own way. Even though it would get more viewers, it wouldn’t be mine.
Rebuilding a network is a slow, brick-by-brick process. It’s not just creating a hit show – it’s building shows to back up that hit show; it’s creating an identity of success so that people want their shows on your network.
The first heart you win over is that casting director. In first meetings, they’ll be the ones who see your pitch for the character. And then as you get further up, they’ll be the ones reading with you in front of the network.
The hyperloop will be a digital network. That’s why we say we look at transportation as a new form of broadband.
When I did ‘Nikki and Sara Live,’ I think a lot of the comedy got lost because we were always so worried about how we looked, and so was the network.
Instead of cartoons, I was the kid who was watching Food Network, falling asleep to Emeril and Rachael Ray.
I once called the head of a network a liar. In hindsight, I should have called him an incompetent liar.
I wish we could get a national buddy network going. It would be a great thing for the American people.
The idea was always going to be that each year is a stand-alone story, which did make it easier on some level. It also requires the network to have the creative imagination to say, ‘This is also ‘Fargo,’ you know what I mean?
At MIT, I had the good fortune for seven years to teach network theory, which is basic to many disciplines, to one-third of the undergraduate student body. It was an experiment to see how high we could bring their level of understanding, and it exceeded all of my expectations.
The Web is actually a coming together of three technologies, if you like: the hypertext, the personal computer, and the network. So, the network we had, and the personal computers were there, but people didn’t use them, because they didn’t know what to use them for, except maybe for a few games.
If you’re interested in expanding your network, you can’t go wrong with Twitter. You don’t need to be a celebrity to have fun and grow your network with Twitter.
When I was a publisher of CNN, I took responsibility for the actions of the network.
A network did not make me, and therefore, a network cannot break me.
‘Green Screen’ was a total experiment. I’m glad we did it, but it was just tough on that network to get it going.
