New proposal: Death to "hacks."

Unless you're Paul Graham, you don't get to say hacks.

We're talking here {"lifehacks", "brain hacks", "social hacks", "parenting hacks", "HR hacks","travel hacks", "Business Insider Tip XYZ hacks"}

All of this sounds an awful, awful, awful lot like SHORTCUT or TRICK.

There's nothing wrong with being efficient with your time, diligent, and sneaking around useless grunt work w/ a bit of clever automation, but this lame-article hack movement is the worst.

Dare I say I've heard enough from these hack writers?

Death to hacks.
