OUTSTANDING video that illustrates the difference between paradigms of scarcity v. abundance, how leaders shift perspective, and the importance of dwelling in possibility.

"The only reason to practice is to make the notes so beautiful that we want to know what happens to them!"

hacking hackers essays creativity innovation cognition mentoring perspective

"It comes down to a common quest
for knowledge," Knowles says. "Why does it do what it does? Who, what,
where, when, why, how?"

Hackers are distinguished by their
hunger for knowledge. They long to see things whole and yearn to know how
things work. Their power derives from the critical knowledge that
leverages other knowledge, their enthusiasm from an adrenaline rush that
comes when they finally make that connection, solve that puzzle.
When the door against which you've
been banging your head suddenly dissolves and you slip effortlessly to the
next level--that's the joy of hacking
21 more annotations...
- they see the world in the image of networks.
- We discover in the process of
  living life with gusto the boundaries we had better not cross, then learn
  how to set limits from within. The risks must be real or the rewards
  aren't real.
- Hackers at their best are
  trekkers who hike the peaks and valleys of the virtual world. The
  infrastructure of the world is a puzzle invented to test their mettle.
  They fail into failure again and again before failing into success: The
  non-pattern of chaotic data suddenly coalesces, the dots connect and
  anxiety vanishes.
  
  You see how it works! Bingo! You
  understand how it all hangs together.
- Technically, it's called "living
  proleptically"--when a new possibility breaks into the present with such
  compelling power that we have no choice but to live out of that vision as
  if it's real. We adopt a new point of reference, and by living as if it
  has already happened, we make it real.
- He could never see the Big Picture so the details
  never connected in a way that made sense."
- what distinguishes the best hackers. "The
  defining characteristic is they see the Big Picture," he says. "They have
  incredible amounts of knowledge and have gone into things at incredibly
  deep levels. There is such an immense base of knowledge about competing
  technologies,
- "Everyone specializes so much,"
  Dark Tangent continues, "that it's important to know people in all the
  different areas. You have to know what you don't need to know and you have
  to know who you can call when you need to know it."
- You can make it just
  trading tokens of knowledge, the currency of hacking and advance through
  'remote learning.' But the Network is not just computers, it's
  knowledgeable people connected by computers."
- Hackers have little patience with
  people who want to be spoon-fed hard-earned knowledge and won't do the
  homework.
- you have to know where to look."
- onnected with a mentor at a critical moment in his career.
  That mentor taught him how to look through trash for hours to find the few
  significant items that would let him gain entry
- more importantly, his mentor taught him by example how to mentor.
- being available to provide
  information at the right moment to enable a learner to leverage what he
  already knows,
- defines the ideal coach.
- She started asking specific, pointed questions about
  networking. That earned her my undivided attention and assistance in
  learning."
- "You want to create hackers? Don't
  tell them how to do this or that. Show them how to discover it for
  themselves.
- "managing your ego,"
  which he does by hanging out with smart friends. That keeps the limits of
  his own knowledge in perspective.
- "I have
  had to recognize that my perception of reality is fundamentally different
  than that of people who don't want to know how it really is. You can come
  off sounding cynical, but it isn't cynicism, really, it's just that you
  have had experiences they haven't and that deeper reality becomes your
  point of departure and your point of reference."
- The contextual shift through which
  our culture is moving is immense. Hackers live in the gray areas that must
  exist as we redefine ourselves.
- "The only thing the public knows
  about hackers is how they defaced some Web page or crashed a server,"
  Modify says. "They never hear about the hacker that e-mails an
  administrator about the holes in his security or fixes security breaches
  for a system administrator."
- Sanction comes not from a central government,
  however, but from the facts of paradigm change, hierarchical restructuring
  and exponential change itself. The evolution of a single global economy
  mandates that every business behave as if it's an independent country.
  Every enterprise must manage its proprietary data and master the craft of
  intelligence and disinformation. Information is currency, and those who
  know how to get it and integrate it into meaningful patterns are the new
  Masters of the Universe.
