Today is the 29th anniversary of "The conscience of a hacker" by The Mentor. It is more commonly called "The hackers manifesto". As a young 14 year old southern redneck who never really fit in with the rednecks, this article changed my life. It made me realize that there were others out there who were smart and felt like they didn't belong. It gave me hope that one day I would find those people. I found a lot of them here at binrev. My dramatic reading of this article is in the downloads section. If you have never read it before, or want to hear it again, please give it a listen.
