That does not seem very entertaining. My problem is this: I'd like to know how to program and be an awesome hacker, but I don't have the motivation to go through all the tedious steps in getting there.

Can I get by this?

I found an online ebook that looks good:

"Programming from the Ground Up" By Johnathan Bartlett

Should I read it? It teaches one about Linux and Assembly. Is this a good book for someone who's starting out?

So... Here's what I need: more info and something that'll inspire me. Is that too much to ask for?

Thanks for all your help.
