Chinese productivity is the highest in the world but the way they do it is by borrowing the technology from abroad, either by joint ventures or other means.
Because we imagine, we can have invention and technology. It's actually play, not necessity, that is the mother of invention.
Well, clearly Apple is a role model of the American innovation whereby it produced all these products - iPod, iPhone, iPad - that are really now dominating all the technology arena in the world.
The first footfalls on Mars will mark a historic milestone, an enterprise that requires human tenacity matched with technology to anchor ourselves on another world.
It reflects a prevailing myth that production technology is no more amenable to human judgment or social interests than the laws of thermodynamics, atomic structure or biological inheritance.
I've tried to make 'Strictly Ballroom' impossible to date. It does feel a bit '80s but I consciously made sure there was no technology in the movie that could date it.
Technology is huge; I wanted to learn about it. People might say that's odd, but I think it's odd if artists aren't interested in the world around them. I'm always chasing that.
U.S. nuclear technology is one of this nation's most valuable secrets, and it should have been protected.
The committee's finding that China stole sensitive technology from U.S. weapons research labs is alarming.
I managed Hewlett Packard through the worst technology downturn in 25 years, the dotcom bust.
In the developing world, people often use quite basic technology. Many of the most imaginative schemes are using what we'd count as old tech.
If smart technology can transform 3-D from a crude novelty to a genuine visual enhancement, why shouldn't a sophisticated odor synthesizer follow a similar path?
But by the time I was 40, everything was winding down. It started after the war. On the plus side, there was more more products and technology. But for me the nightlife was winding down, the glamour, the fun.

If mankind were to continue in other than the present barbarism, a new path must be found, a new civilization based on some other method than technology.
I set out to create chips that used low-energy technology, and that has allowed me to develop devices that can do all their data crunching on site.
Aliens didn't come down to Earth and give us technology. We invented it ourselves. Therefore it can never be alienating; it can only be an expression of our humanity.
So, I see technology as a Trojan Horse: It looks like a wonderful thing, but they are going to regret introducing it into the schools because it simply can't be controlled.
Most people are really stunned to find out that the technology has been around for more than 100 years, and that the diesel engine was in fact invented to run on vegetable oil.
People would like better batteries but they are wary of making investments. What is required is both a technology push and a market pull.
People always underestimate the impact of technology. To give you an example: In the 1970s the frontier for offshore development was 200 meters, today it is 4,000 meters.
