Ask HN: What's your proudest hack?
Elementary school, Windows 3.x era.School district thought they blocked access to the built-in OS games.Nope, from any program (Wordpad, etc) you could FILE -> OPEN to find/launch/play Minesweeper.Nothing makes an 8-year-old feel more like a "hacker" than subverting school controls to play video games, while also gaining cred with your friends.The good ol' days.
