Datamation

Datamation
 /day`[email protected]'sh@n/, n.

   A magazine that many hackers assume all {suit}s read. Used to question
   an unbelieved quote, as in "Did you read that in Datamation?". It used
   to publish something hackishly funny every once in a while, like the
   original paper on {COME FROM} in 1973, and Ed Post's Real Programmers
   Don't Use Pascal ten years later, but for a long time after that it
   was much more exclusively {suit}-oriented and boring. Following a
   change of editorship in 1994, Datamation briefly tried for more the
   technical content and irreverent humor that marked its early days, but
   this did not last.
