The author is telling us that "Hackers" are people who know enough ins and outs about the things they interact with on a daily basis.

> "My point is, it is not just about computers. It's about understanding how the world works. The world is made up of people. As much as machines keep society running, those machines are programmed by people--people with managers, spouses, and children; with wants, needs, and dreams. And it is about using that knowledge to bring about the change you want to see.

That is what being a hacker is all about."

I usually read/listen to people's experiences and whether or not their stories truly make sense depends on how they present them to the world.
