Mau nambahin sekalian 'enlightenment' sebentar (udah lama nggak ada topik model
begini).
Eric S. Raymond (Untuk yang merasa hacker kalau nggak tau beliau agak2
keterlaluan, nggak tahu salah satu hasil kerjanya yaitu OpenSource Initiative
lebih keterlaluan lagi... he he he...) punya satu kamus bagus di:

Dan menurut dia (ESR):
---mulai---
hacker n.
[originally, someone who makes furniture with an axe] 1. A person who enjoys exploring
the details of
programmable systems and how to stretch their capabilities, as opposed to most users,
who prefer to learn only
the minimum necessary. 2. One who programs enthusiastically (even obsessively) or who
enjoys programming
rather than just theorizing about programming. 3. A person capable of appreciating
hack value. 4. A person
who is good at programming quickly. 5. An expert at a particular program, or one who
frequently does work
using it or on it; as in `a Unix hacker'. (Definitions 1 through 5 are correlated, and
people who fit them
congregate.) 6. An expert or enthusiast of any kind. One might be an astronomy hacker,
for example. 7. One
who enjoys the intellectual challenge of creatively overcoming or circumventing
limitations. 8. [deprecated] A
malicious meddler who tries to discover sensitive information by poking around. Hence
`password hacker',
`network hacker'. The correct term for this sense is cracker.
The term `hacker' also tends to connote membership in the global community defined by
the net (see the
network and Internet address). For discussion of some of the basics of this culture,
see the How To Become
A Hacker FAQ. It also implies that the person described is seen to subscribe to some
version of the hacker
ethic (see hacker ethic).
It is better to be described as a hacker by others than to describe oneself that way.
Hackers consider
themselves something of an elite (a meritocracy based on ability), though one to which
new members are
gladly welcome. There is thus a certain ego satisfaction to be had in identifying
yourself as a hacker (but if you
claim to be one and are not, you'll quickly be labeled bogus). See also wannabee.
This term seems to have been first adopted as a badge in the 1960s by the hacker
culture surrounding TMRC
and the MIT AI Lab. We have a report that it was used in a sense close to this entry's
by teenage radio hams
and electronics tinkerers in the mid-1950s.
