[net.nlang] Yet another definition of "hacker"

pearlman@trw-unix.UUCP (Laura Pearlman) (09/16/83)

Where I went to school, "hack" had all the meanings mentioned in this newsgroup
so far, as well as one more:  "a hack" was what most people would call "a
college prank", "to hack" meant to perpetrate a hack, and "a hacker" was one
who hacked.  "I was out hacking all night" was a very ambiguous statement.
