Oh, I am so burned out from that word. Everybody wants a piece of the community and tries to be authentic by adopting its lingo. But it feels so goddamned forced.

I only use it for lack of a better one; "programming" seems too specific. What would you suggest?

I was talking more about hacking in the "doing something clever" sense that has popped up like crazy: hack your taxes! hack your wife! hack the stock market! etc.

Well actually, "doing something clever" is damn close to the origin of the word.
