1. Uptime
Technically, a machine's time since last reboot; jargonically, how
long a hacker has gone without sleep. “What's your uptime?”
“Oh, about 28 hours so far, but I think I can probably do another
12.” This is, of course, a reference to the uptime command and the
pride with which most Unix types note how long their computers go without
reboots. Uptime is a testament to the stability of the OS and the stamina
of the hacker.
