- lincolnq 16y agoIndeed, the book is incredibly entertaining. Seems like people here seem to put it down, but it's a real hackers' book -- lots of practical, effective recipes for getting results. I'd definitely recommend it.

Hacks are just that, hacks. Used short term to solve a problem, not fix the cause. Tim's studies are short term, and the long term effects of his hacks is not really known.
