Hackers
The Graphing Calculator Story, that is making rounds in computist blogs, reminds me of the .sig by Alan Schmitt:
The hacker: someone who figured things out and made something cool happen.
The world needs more hackers and fewer witch doctors. Now, I wonder how much of the difference in psycho-epistemology is in-born, and how much is acquired... and I admit I am rather pessimistic as to the answer and its consequences.
