Who is Hacker Dan?

Hacker Dan is one of CompSci.ca administrators. Together with Tony, the admin duo keeps things in order. Dan is in charge of maintaing the site and keeping order as well as helping to set policy with the help of Tony and the CompSci.ca Board of Directors. Dan is also in charge of the secuity of the site, and if need be, defending it from the enemies at the gate (or others that would try to harm us).

Hacker Dan is believed to be one of the CompSci Gods and holds the power for the Book of Typos AKA The Old Dictionary of Dan. It is rummered that he got his cyborgo face in a battle with Bill Gates and his M$ Pirates, though on the upside, it seems to give him more powers like shooting laser beams out his cyborg eye.

Profile

I am one of the administrators of CompSci.ca. I have been runing and maintaining it for about 4~5 years (too lazy to look it up right now). I have been progamming for about 13~14 years now and am very intrested in computer security matters as well as metaphysics and other philosophical matters. I am well versed in many langues and topics of computer science and am currently majoring in it at Lakehead University (in Thunder Bay). As you can probably see from this profile, my spelling is not the best, but if you have a problem with this, there are many other sites on the net you can go to that will match your spelling needs.

Hacker Danish

The Book

Ever notice Hacker Dan's spelling? Seems a bit off? Well that's only beacuse it is not English he speaks, rather Hacker Danish, a mystical language known only to a select few. The only documents relating to this language known to be in existance are the Old Dictionary of Dan and the New Dictionary of Dan. Unfortunately the Old book was lost due to a dimensional rift serveral 1000 years ago. The New book is an attempt to reconstruct the old. More info can be found on Hacker Danish and the Books on the Dictionary of Dan page.

What is realy up with the spelling?

I am dyslexic.
