Phrack, even after the official crew gave up contributing to it, is an exceptional archive of deep and highly technical programming techniques (and more). I highly recommend to everyone to just go through some of the issues and read some papers.

Not sure why this is getting posted. Isn't this still mandatory reading for hackers when they're in middle school?
