They will think: (1) that we write equations in white markers on glass windows (like John Nash in Beautiful Mind) prior to whipping out PHP to build a website, (2) that Zuckerberg intended from the start for Facebook to become the photo-and-info-sharing megahub it is today (almost like he had Facebook Places in his head 7 years ago), rather than implementing something that Harvard IT had promised "in a few years" (from the horse's mouth), (3) that we get more action than we probably do for being technology folks, (4) that secret societies at Harvard are just as mysteriously sexy and dangerous as other movies like The Skulls have made them out to be, (5) that kids entering college have more vision, ambition, and maturity about their futures rather than being awkward and confused (I teach freshmen sometimes), (6) that "hacking" is frequently accompanied by hot nypmhettes pleasuring you in time trials, in which case "Hacker News" is a total misnomer. In other words, they will not think anything new...
