Hackers Are People Too
Hug a Hacker
I’ve just finished watching the Documentary “Hackers are people Too” A documentary made by Hackers, about Hackers to try and correct the “misrepresentation” the Hacker community gets from the Press & Hollywood.
All in all it was not a bad small documentary at about forty minutes long. I think it could have shown a bit more, and answered a few more questions, and laid some things to rest, but overall it was not too bad.
They mentioned that as a community we are more tolerant of race, age, religion, looks, Since most meet up online for years before ever meeting in real life, so friendships are made purely by personality and intelligence. The statement reminded me of the old “Hackers Manifesto” by The Mentor, and I thought I’d post it on here as a reminder of the old days.
