A weekly podcast, published every Sunday, by a self-described hacker, curmudgeon and hacktivist. Discussion of news of interest to the alpha and uber geek, as well as stories and humor from a decade of professional programming. Always topical, interesting to the admittedly few, with as much bile and rhetoric as the net will withstand.

This is a feature cast.

Listener feedback this week is from Michel asking after an Ogg Vorbis feed, Ryan asking about past shows on contributing to open source projects, and Thomas asking about books to read on hacker culture and history. The two older books I mentioned are Mind Matters by James P. Hogan and Complexity by Mitchell Waldrop.

The hacker word of the week this week is defenestration.

For this week's feature I contacted the EFF to talk to someone about the recent passage of the FISA Amendments Acts. I am joined by Rebecca Jeschke, EFF's media coordinator.
