On Cowboy Bebop, Radical Edward, Asshurtmacfags, the GNAA, and Anomalous Hackers, essay

I normally write reviews about certification courses, or technical manuals, so this is a bit different.

I've been thinking about writing about Radical Edward, and the characters place in hacking culture, and why they kind of parallel Jaime "Asshurtmacfags" Cochran.

Outside of niche academic circles the controversial GNAA is almost never discussed, but I feel it's an extremely important part of the history of hacking, and hacking culture, up there with the CODC, or Anonymous. I certainly feel Asshurtmacfags is the most interesting individual from that group, and worth discussing.

Anyway for those interested in some autism posting about hacking, this is the article:
