释义 | wannedwanW0024300 (wŏn)WANW0024350 (wăn)wannabeewannabeeHistorical note: The wannabee phenomenon has a slightlydifferent flavour now (1993) than it did ten or fifteen yearsago. When the people who are now hackerdom's tribal elderswere in larval stage, the process of becoming a hacker waslargely unconscious and unaffected by models known in popularculture - communities formed spontaneously around people who,*as individuals*, felt irresistibly drawn to do hackerlythings, and what wannabees experienced was a fairly pure,skill-focussed desire to become similarly wizardly. Thosedays of innocence are gone forever; society's adaptation tothe advent of the microcomputer after 1980 included theelevation of the hacker as a new kind of folk hero, and theresult is that some people semi-consciously set out to *behackers* and borrow hackish prestige by fitting the popularimage of hackers. Fortunately, to do this really well, onehas to actually become a wizard. Nevertheless, old-timehackers tend to share a poorly articulated disquiet about thechange; among other things, it gives them mixed feelings aboutthe effects of public compendia of lore like this one. |
