dilbert
(jargon) | Dilbert
n. Name and title character of a comic strip nationally syndicated in the
U.S. and enormously popular among hackers. Dilbert is an archetypical
engineer-nerd who works at an anonymous high-technology company; the strips
present a lacerating satire of insane working conditions and idiotic {
management} practices all too readily recognized by hackers. Adams, who
spent nine years in cube 4S700R at Pacific Bell (not DEC as often
reported), often remarks that he has never been able to come up with a
fictional management blunder that his correspondents didn't quickly either
report to have actually happened or top with a similar but even more
bizarre incident. In 1996 Adams distilled his insights into the collective
psychology of businesses into an even funnier book, The Dilbert Principle
(HarperCollins, ISBN 0-887-30787-6). See also pointy-haired, rat dance.
