Others may be contemplating a career in computing or carrying out research in psychology/sociology. There are all sorts of stereotypes about hackers. Which if any of them are generally true?
No. I come here to peruse postings submitted by intelligent people. I recommend you transcend the stereotype associated with that oh-so-overused-and-now-meaningless term. Instead - what is a 'hacker' to you? Smart + curious + rebellious? Smart + curious + ambitious? Or (heaven forbid) someone who has 'branded' themselves as a hacker for marketing or ego purposes?
My experience is: beware of anyone who projects such labels onto themselves; more often than not, they're the charlatans.
