pitch: my 1000 word piece on what Hackers (1995) got right about hackers

@sarahjeong You know the writers interviewed a bunch of members of the l0pht in Boston before writing the movie, right?
@evacide i did not know that but i believe it. the movie is so over-the-top and bad, but upon reflection, lots of stuff that’s very real

@sarahjeong It helps if you think of the nightclubs and parties as visual metaphors for threads in newsgroups and IRC chatter. -
@evacide and the rollerblades / skateboards as a metaphor for being “quick” with technology -
@sarahjeong Basically, you know you're old when you watch Hackers and you start feeling bad for Mr. The Plague. -
@evacide my current haircut is inspired by Angelina Jolie in Hackers and I’m probably keeping it forever
