I have to disagree. Hacking is a broad term that isn't exclusive to finding buffer overflows in ghidra.

    I was watching a speedrunner live stream, and just the way he thinks...

    The way speedrunners think is basically how pentesters think.

    The original meaning of the word "hacking" is just "to get something to work in a way it was not meant to work".

    So the hacker mindset of finding workarounds or unforseen scenarios applies to a lot of things, not just devices and systems (such as games) but also human processes.
