Slashdot | Kurzweil on the Future

I fancy myself a hacker of sorts… (See the proper definition to see what I mean).

Here’s a fun quote I ran across today:

“… God is a hacker, not an engineer, You can do reverse engineering, but you can’t do reverse hacking.”

I got a kick out of this statement because of one of the “types” of hackers from the above link is :

7. One who enjoys the intellectual challenge of creatively overcoming or circumventing limitations.

I’d have to say that God definitely creatively overcame the challenge of making this rock we call planet Earth… And as far as limitations… What limitations?

Hehe… So now you know the sort of thing that makes me laugh.
