I suggest we think twice about making the term "hack akrasia" a thing. Once it's in comments without definition, does a newcomer read it as having akrasia about hacking, or trying to hack akrasia?
It's fine to have terms people won't understand if they'll realize that and look it up, but this one invites oblivious misinterpretation.
Do you have an alternative term in mind? I was thinking "meta-akrasia" at first, but that didn't seem quite right when I thought about it.
BTW, I'm not in favor of making it a thing or anything like that, I was just writing a couple discussion posts about it... It's not like I'm writing a book here.
It's been used successfully before, if you're not making a separate thing that you need a separate term for.
