Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.com
This third edition of the tremendously popular Hacker's Dictionary adds 100 new entries and updates 200 entries. In case you aren't familiar with it, this is no snoozer dictionary of technical terms, although you'll certainly find accurate definitions for most techie jargon. It's the slang and secret language among computer jocks that offers the most fun. Don't know what the Infinite-Monkey Theorem is? Or the meaning of "rat dance?" It's all here. Most people don't sit down to read dictionaries for entertainment, but this is surely an exception.
Pressestimmen
"A sprightly lexicon." William Safire, New York Times Magazine "For anyone who likes to have slippery, elastic fun with language, this is a time for celebration... The New Hacker's Dictionary... is not only a useful guidebook to very much un-official technical terms and street tech slang, but also a de facto ethnography of the early years of the hacker culture." Mondo 2000 "My current favorite is wave a dead chicken.' New to you? You've waved a dead chicken when you've gone through motions to satisfy onlookers (suits?), even when you're sure it's all futile. Raymond's book exhilarates... The New Hacker's Dictionary, though, is not for skimming. Allot, each day, a half hour, severely timed if you hope to get any work done." Hugh Kenner, Byte

If you can remember playing "Adventure" on a teletype, this book is for you. And if you're in college, hoping for a job in computing when you graduate, this book is for you too. It's an anarchic compendium of the anarchic vocabulary, habits, and style of the programming profession.
The New Hacker's Dictionary is mostly arranged as a set of alphabetical entries, but there are a couple of excellent appendices, on hacker folklore and on the hacker lifestyle and habits. (Hacker is used here in its original sense of someone who enjoys and is good at programming--Raymond has included both "hacker" and "cracker" as entries, of course.) The entry on folklore is simply hilarious; I wish I could just include Guy Steele's "more magic" story here, but I'll just have to tell you to buy the book.
The entries are a real mixture. Many, such as "indent style", go beyond just defining the term: this entry gives examples of the four major C styles and mentions the holy wars (another entry . . .) which have occurred over them. Some are quite current: Easter egg, kluge, Trojan horse; others are arcane or dated, but still interesting: NeWS, CP/M, chiclet keyboard. All the entries are interesting and well-written.
Newcomers to the field may find a good deal of enlightenment here, and old-timers will find a lot of memories. My own favourite entries relate to the old text-based game Adventure, which I encountered on a CDC machine in 1981. "I see no <X> here." "Plugh!" "Xyzzy!" *Sigh* It almost makes me miss those old teletypes.

This book is so popular that hackers called it yellow book inshort. The best book for serious jargon...

Contrary to what most of the reviews here seem to want you to believe, this book doesn't have a great deal of official techspeak, beyond a few standards things like FTP and whatever. Instead, most of the words here would be well-categorized as slang, completely unofficial words which I seriously doubt most real-life computer techs have even heard of. It's certainly unrealistic to expect this to be a "guide" to communicating with geeks, unless they've read this book as well, (which many have, admittedly). However, while it is not terribly "useful", per se, it is extremely entertaining (if you really, really like computer folklore) and funny (if your sense of humor is computer-oriented). Any serious computer buff should have it for the extensive coverage of old (really old, as in pre-1980s) computer info.

Not my cup of tea, but a must read all the while.
You have to read to gain a toehold on the scene, but it's not the complete story.
