Welcome to the Nerdery: Sierra Bravo Corp

My eyes, the goggles do nothing.

No clue what this company does -- but I really dislike the word 'nerd'. To me, a nerd is someone that is socially challenged to the point that people tend to look down on him.

Obviously, I prefer 'hacker'. Even if the rest of society doesn't quite get the term yet, I think it's a more elegant way of describing our class of folks. We may be socially challenged at times, but we are insanely driven and passionate.

Yet? It's been a few decades now, and all they've done is cement themselves more firmly in the "hacking == illegal" frame of thought.

At some point you just have to give up and accept the dichotomy of the term...

Some context for this advertisement would be nice.

FYI, I have nothing to do with them, it just looked like an odd/interesting site.

This was put up by a web development shop in Minneapolis. It is their "now hiring" page.
