- atgm 16y agoNever seen that before... I'd think something like a white top hat on black or vice versa would be a simple silhouette that would be descriptive, if there isn't anything.
- roxstar 16y agoWell that kind of portrays a different kind of hacker (the hats) than what the emblem I linked is for.
- shadowpwner 16y agoBut that wouldn't be an injoke, would it? ;) I've seen this around, but I assumed it was more security-hacking than startup-hacking. Edit: "The basic difference is this: hackers build things, crackers break them." from http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html#what_is http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html#what_is I stand corrected.
- anujkk 16y agoIsn't that something like red hat logo?
- anujkk 16y agoGood to see that it exists in real. I will explore this thing. I am designing my personal website and thinking to put it there to express my belief in hacker culture.

- solipsist 16y agoAhh, the famous Conway's Game of Life. Unfortunately since I've interacted with this type of cellular automata so much, this emblem speaks "Game of Life" to me more than it does "Hacker". I wonder if there is any other logo/emblem that is less tied to something and could be adopted as the official hacker emblem.
