  • Resumen

  • Paul Graham's essay, "Hackers and Painters," argues that hackers, like painters, are makers who create beautiful things. Graham critiques the term "computer science," finding it misleading as it lumps together diverse fields. He contrasts the theoretical approach of academia with the practical, iterative process of hacking, emphasizing the importance of sketching and refining ideas through code. Graham proposes that hackers should embrace their role as makers, drawing inspiration from other creative fields, and that open-source development offers a model for fostering beautiful software. He also highlights the value of empathy in software design, arguing that hackers should strive to understand the user's perspective and build software that is intuitive and easy to use.
