The word may imply different things in different context. When used in
the Free Software or academic circles, it is what KK defines it as.
For a lay person, when used in a technical context, it almost always
implies cracking. When used in context of farming it means cutting
grass. When used in the military/terrorist/killer context, it means
killing people.
