Example sentence(s):
  • Computadores (e quando falo em computadores falo do conjunto, não apenas da parte física) são máquinas estúpidas que apenas executam aquilo que lhe é indicado.
  • As máquinas são estúpidas. Nós temos que lhes dizer exactamente como trabalhar. Os génios são génios porque pensam "out-of-the-box", ou seja partindo de uma ideia completamente fora do esquema e/ou aparentemente sem ter nada a ver com o problema ..
