"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
And then there's the other view: Any sufficiently low technology is indistinguishable from hard work. Any sufficiently advanced bureaucracy is indistinguishable from molasses. Any sufficiently advanced card game is indistinguishable from magic. Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a rigged demo. Any sufficiently complicated technology is indistinguishable from bad karma. Any sufficiently high technology is indistinguishable from doubletalk.

enough undigested nuggets of nutrition to sustain life for some. But
it is not a tasty pie: it reeks too much of contempt and of envy.'
