Hacker was a good man

Most of the literature mentions that the term and the hacker culture were first used in 1961 when MIT had the opportunity to enjoy the PDP-1 machine. DEC’s first computer production has become a favorite toy, especially the MIT student who joined the Tech Model Railroad Club. They make programming tools, making a lot of programs, develop ethics, jargon and even PDP-1, which became a video-game machine earlier generations. Culture is then known to be a true hacker culture. The hackers in the Tech Model Railroad Club became the team’s core research laboratory Artificial Intelligence (AI), MIT is a pioneer in AI research in the world today.

Arpanet project developed by the U.S. Defense Department was not free from interference by hackers at MIT. Arpanet was the one who brings together the hacker culture from the various “tribes”, for example, from Stanford University and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). MIT hackers eventually even managed to develop its own operating system called ITS (Incompatible Time-Sharing System) is legendary, tops-10 replaces the standard operating system produced by DEC for the PDP-10. ITS was originally built with the assembler, but later changed into the language LISP, functional programming language close to the world of Artificial Intelligence.

Another creation from the MIT hackers who is legendary is Emacs (Richard Stallman), a favorite editor who still used by many programmers UNIX machine to date. I know the first time Emacs when entering campus at Saitama University in 1995, I used to write all my college report, read email, web browsing, reading newsgroups and even Emacs, too, who I use to build IlmuKomputer.Com earlier generations. Apart from the MIT hackers, the hackers at Stanford University and CMU also do not want to lose, they even managed to develop large scale applications of expert systems and industrial robots.

From Bell Labs hacker named Ken Thompson who is assisted by another hacker named Dennis Ritchie develop the C language with the UNIX operating system. Collaboration Thomson and Ritchie is the force that is phenomenal, because UNIX and C language is a potent formula for the development of variants of the UNIX operating system from anywhere to date (BSD and System V where Linux included). Also note that in 1982, hackers from Stanford and Berkeley who led William (Bill) Joy established a company called Sun Microsystems.

Era 1984 commencement of the various episodes of rapid cracking known as raised by the press and journalists. Journalists began to mistakenly refer to computer crime and its deviation as a “hacking activities” where the perpetrator is called by hackers.

A hacker is actually like Richard Stallman who fought with the Free Software Foundation and decades of dreaming to build a free operating system called the HURD. Linux Torvalds is a hacker also true for remaining committed to the development of the kernel Linux root until now. Contributors to the development of Linux and other open source software also are the real hackers.

Hacker is a reputation; they are proud of the work done and want a job that is associated with their real names. Hacker does not have the computer, because the concept of hacking is real learners, enthusiastic people to work and never give up because of failure. And the hackers could appear in the field of electronics, machinery, architecture, economics, politics, etc…
