PHUCK YEAH.
You wanna talk about news for hackers, and not this Bay Area, VC-manipulated, water-downed, same-ol' bullshit? Phrack is real talk. If you want to travel outside of California and actually call yourself a hacker, you're gonna need to read this and as much of the archive as you can. Phrack 0wnz.
- skrebbel 15y agoGood point. Also, why are you on this site? You can't get much more "Bay Area, VC-manipulated, water-downed, same-ol' bullshit" than HN.
- Mizza 15y agoI like both! I live in the Bay now, and I am running a start-up project. I think that startups are good! I'm just coming from a culture where hacker means something very different. In California, it seems to just mean "developer," and HackerNews should probably just be called DeveloperNews, but really it's too late for that now, and not really even worth talking about. Words can mean different things regionally, and that's okay. That's the only point I was trying to make.
- itmag 15y agoShameless plug: Interesting Times Magazine - http://interestingtimesmagazine.net/download.html http://interestingtimesmagazine.net/download.html We try to keep the old-school badboy ethos from Phrack and 2600, but we write about hacking in a greater sense. Ie hacking the body, hacking relationships, hacking gardening (aka permaculture), hacking one's own psyche, all kinds of fun stuff :) We aim to be what you would get if you were to put Tim Ferriss and Tony Robbins in charge of 2600 :)
