"The greatest crime of Marxism wasn't simply that much of what it
claimed was false, but that it claimed to be the sole and utterly
complete path to understanding life and reality. Cybernetic
eschatology shares with some of history's worst ideologies a doctrine
of historical predestination. There is nothing more gray, stultifying,
or dreary than a life lived inside the confines of a theory. Let us
hope that the cybernetic totalists learn humility before their day in
the sun arrives." -- Jaron Lanier,
