Hacking Mac OS X

Bill Hamm writes "DB is carrying a deep interview with Jonathan Rentzsch, who created an open source technology to allow other developers to inject their code into any running process to alter its functions and written papers for IBM to program the PowerPC correctly. The interview is huge and technical, and all over the place in terms of content. Some of the things discussed are the reasons for corporate America's resistance to buying from Apple, software optimization, the importance and history of 10.4's Core Data, why WebObjects is no longer relevant, the status of PowerPC compilers, and why Mac OS X's Finder should be killed off."

..that the "hacking" in "Hacking Mac OS X" is referring to "hacking [catb.org]" in the traditional sense, not "cracking [catb.org]".

But honestly, would anyone who reads Slashdot not know this already. Look at all the "____ Hacks" books from O'Reilly, for example.
