Hello, I'm a Hacker
summary
Hacker mindset is curiosity and persistence demonstrated by concrete exploits: logging into farm APIs with default credentials to change cow locations, swapping a camel database so prized animals appear in Mongolia, coaxing a Mars rover plays Freddie Mercury via weak satellite links, and noting modern cars have 150 million lines of code with ~20 errors per 1,000 lines. Examples include finding Heartbleed on rail networks, probing hotel Wi‑Fi, and weaponizing API and supply‑chain trust to alter real‑world systems.
