Robotech_Master writes "Salon Magazine is running an interesting and thought-provoking short story/novella by Cory Doctorow, co-editor of the b0ing b0ing weblog. This story, 0wnz0red, features programmer/geek terms and references, Descartes, "trustworthy computing," and what happens when programmers gain the ability to hack their own autonomic functions. A really fun read...like Stephenson's works, it feels like it's aimed squarely at the geeks' demographic."

Webster's dictionary anyone?

"Interesting and thought provoking" Are these codewords also? This article certainly doesn't come close to falling under the literal definitions for either of these terms. "Boring and redundant" would be a more apt description. Somebody owes me 15 minutes added back to my life timer for suggesting this was a worthwhile read.
