A tragic tale nearly on the same level as 'lol'
It used to mean that an edit was made to a program from a third party. These hacks were used in video game terms to be synonymous with cheat codes.
Then the normies got a hold of it.
Now it pretty much means a clever trick, although with some of the ways that it is used, the 'trick' usually isn't clever at all.

A) learned an old way of doing something that is slightly easier than the way they do it currently, or

Hym "It sounds like you're repurposing the things I do naturally as life hacks. MY NATURAL GENIUS as a sort of philosophy. Which makes me a genius philosopher. It's almost as if I think and do things... You know... Better... That's what it seems like at least. Sterling likes to do the same thing with 'traits that are attractive to women' and though you are correct in that I both THINK and AM better. I should be getting credit for that. And I don't think that because I'm arrogant. I think it because I think better. BETTER THAN EVERYONE!! THE GREATEST MIND THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN!!!"
