Datamation

/day`t@maysh@n/ , n. A magazine that many hackers assume all suit s read.
Used to question an unbelieved quote, as in Did you read that in
Datamation?. It used to publish something hackishly funny every once in a
while, like the original paper on COME FROM in 1973, and Ed Post's Real
Programmers Don't Use Pascal ten years later, but for a long time after that
it was much more exclusively suit -oriented and boring. Following a change
of editorship in 1994, Datamation briefly tried for more the technical
content and irreverent humor that marked its early days, but this did not
last.
