Hacker


Hacker is a term used to describe different types of computer experts. The media and the general populace typically use the term to mean "computer criminal"; however, in many computer subcultures it simply means "clever programmer", with no connotation of computer security skill. It is also sometimes extended to mean any kind of expert, especially one who has particularly detailed knowledge or cleverly circumvents limits.
In an apparently separate usage, "hacker" also has a musical connotation as well. In small combos, and in middle school, high school, and college jazz band classes all over the English-speaking world, "hacker" means either a musician who plays out of turn or simply a musician who shows off constantly. This article does not discuss this definition further.
