From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   Hanlon's Razor prov.   A corollary of {Finagle's Law}, similar
   to Occam's Razor, that reads "Never attribute to malice that which
   can be adequately explained by stupidity."   The derivation of the
   Hanlon eponym is not definitely known, but a very similar remark
   ("You have attributed conditions to villainy that simply result from
   stupidity.") appears in "Logic of Empire", a classic 1941 SF story
   by Robert A. Heinlein, who calls it the `devil theory' of sociology.
   Heinlein's popularity in the hacker culture makes plausible the
   supposition that `Hanlon' is derived from `Heinlein' by phonetic
   corruption.   A similar epigram has been attributed to William James,
   but Heinlein more probably got the idea from Alfred Korzybski and
   other practitioners of General Semantics.   Quoted here because it
   seems to be a particular favorite of hackers, often showing up in
   {sig block}s, {fortune cookie} files and the login banners of BBS
   systems and commercial networks.   This probably reflects the
   hacker's daily experience of environments created by
   well-intentioned but short-sighted people.   Compare {Sturgeon's Law},
      {Ninety-Ninety Rule}.
