Turing’s Cathedral
I just stumbled across, via a comment on Nick Carr’s blog, one of the more luscious turns of geek-phrase I’ve encountered in ages. from George Dyson, on Google: Google is Turing’s cathedral, awaiting its soul. We hope. In the words of an unusually perceptive friend: “When I was there, just before the IPO, I thought the coziness to be almost overwhelming. Happy Golden Retrievers running in slow motion through water sprinklers on the lawn. People waving and smiling, toys everywhere. I immediately suspected that unimaginable evil was happening somewhere in the dark corners. If the devil would come to earth, what place would be better to hide?”
