There are two kinds of people: those that are scared to break things and therefore don't mess around when in doubt. And those that mess around and stick around to fix things when they break.
The later kind is primed to be hackers and developers. By fixing your breaks you learn more about the things, eventually mastering them.

Decent show and all, but the way pied piper harps on their proprietary algo and "intellectual property" - makes me angry. Intellectual property is the bane of technology.
