Stupidity vs. Villainy
I came across a quote that I just had to share. It was first referenced in a comment to a Slashdot story about a suspected spammer’s technique of “untraining” spam filters by sending “normal” text. The wikiquote page has some interesting variations, of which I found the following to be the most quaint:
You have attributed conditions to villainy that simply result from stupidity
How frequently true this is…
Something similar:
“Sufficiently advanced stupidity is indistinguishable from malice.”
Dumb. Just Plain Dumb.
