20 years ago, my mother heard me use the word "hack" in a casual context and panicked, assuming on the basis of the word alone that I meant criminal activity.

20 years ago, my mother heard me use the word "hack" in a casual context and panicked, assuming on the basis of the word alone that I meant criminal activity.
2 years ago, I was walking through Target and an advertisement came across the store loudspeakers touting "Mom hacks." Nerd culture has spread.
- samatman 4y agoThis shows that nerd language has spread. I would posit that the Instagram "mom hack" "lifehack" crowd don't associate the word with computer programming or pwning boxen.
