|
Omnivorous, but usually includes lots of science and science fiction. The
|
|
|
|
|
typical hacker household might subscribe to Analog , Scientific American ,
|
|
|
|
|
Whole-Earth Review , and Smithsonian (most hackers ignore Wired and other
|
|
|
|
|
self-consciously cyberpunk magazines, considering them wannabee fodder).
|
|
|
|
|
Hackers often have a reading range that astonishes liberal arts people but
|
|
|
|
|
tend not to talk about it as much. Many hackers spend as much of their spare
|
|
|
|
|
time reading as the average American burns up watching TV, and often keep
|
|
|
|
|
shelves and shelves of well-thumbed books in their homes.
