/day"t*-may"sh*n/ A magazine that many hackers assume all
suits read. Used to question an unbelieved quote, as in
"Did you read that in "Datamation?"" It used to publish
something hackishly funny every once in a while, like the
original paper on COME FROM in 1973, and Ed Post's "Real
Programmers Don't Use Pascal" ten years later, but it has
since become much more exclusively suit-oriented and boring.

/day`t@·may'sh@n/, n.
A magazine that many hackers assume all suits read. Used to question an
unbelieved quote, as in “Did you read that in Datamation?”. It used to
publish something hackishly funny every once in a while, like the original
paper on COME FROM in 1973, and Ed Post's Real Programmers Don't Use
Pascal ten years later, but for a long time after that it was much more
exclusively suit-oriented and boring. Following a change of editorship in
1994, Datamation briefly tried for more the technical content and
irreverent humor that marked its early days, but this did not last.
