I think up until that time a lot of focus on Internet coverage was either sort of the bits and bytes aspect of it, sort of the high-tech aspect of it, and the sociological aspect of it, which is how it was transforming culture.

Starcraft' was never designed to support multi-byte languages. In order to support more complicated languages like Korean or Chinese, you need two bytes of storage and 'Starcraft' only had one byte.

Intelligence work in the Marine Corps proved to me the strategic value in establishing a Central Command to act as a clearinghouse for disparate bits and floating bytes of information.

The Industrial Revolution was about making physical things. Many of the manufactured goods that were once tangible objects have now been reduced to bits and bytes of data.

In computing, 'byte' is used for precise data size and storage.

Technical Precision

'Byte' and 'bit' are different; a byte is 8 times larger than a bit.

Not Interchangeable

Bytes are the building blocks for larger units like KB, MB, GB, TB.

Storage Units

In general language, 'byte' analogizes data with food - a small part taken from a bigger piece.

Metaphoric Use

'Byte' is not limited to text; it represents any data, including images and sounds.

Variety of Data

In everyday language, 'byte' implies a small yet meaningful piece of information.

 Am I really in such a hurry that I'm prepared to fob off my son with a sound byte at the end of the day?" And I put away the newspaper -- and I was getting on a plane -- and I sat there, and I did something I hadn't done for a long time -- which is I did nothing. I just thought, and I thought long and hard.

 Storage is not just about how many bytes but how well we can actually store the data and recover it. There's always been this tension between how much data we can generate and how much we can recover and how much we can store. Every advance in writing data has required a new way to read it.

 Watson does not travel. Watson's actually huge. It's thousands of processors, a terabyte of memory, trillions of bytes of memory. We got to walk through his climate-controlled server room. The only other "Jeopardy" contestant to this day I've ever been inside.
