In contrast, I am a formally educated hack with a degree (in being a hack) from a top accredited school (of being a hack).
I have a strong foundation in the core priniples of computer architecture, which just helps me be impressively aware of how much I don't know, that I probably should.
I can explain, in fairly technical jargon detail, why you shouldn't let me near your systems.
Yet people also trust me, as well, in spite of how clearly I'm able to articulate how and why they should not.
It's a strange world.
In all seriousness, I've learned so much more from self-taught colleagues than I did in school.
