This ignores the number one rule of just about everything that involves dealing with other people: know your audience. True, there are some generalizations one could make about hackers. But by and large, we're all different. Rather than trying to figure out what hackers want in general, try to figure out what the hacker in front of you wants.
- yason 16y agoBut in practice, we're not at all that different. Every one of us personally is a different, unique character but groups of people always share something: the hacker subculture itself is defined by the common traits of hackers. The generalizations offered by the article were very aptly at a point; I consider them ringing very much true. I think the point of the article exactly was that you will never get that hacker in front of you talking with you and much less sitting down with you unless you realize who you're dealing with.
