From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
hacked off adj.   [analogous to `pissed off'] Said of system    administrators who have become annoyed, upset, or touchy owing to    suspicions that their sites have been or are going to be victimized    by crackers, or used for inappropriate, technically illegal, or even    overtly criminal activities.   For example, having unreadable files    in your home directory called `worm', `lockpick', or `goroot' would    probably be an effective (as well as impressively obvious and    stupid) way to get your sysadmin hacked off at you.          It has been pointed out that there is precedent for this usage in    U.S. Navy slang, in which officers under discipline are sometimes    said to be "in hack" and one may speak of "hacking off the C.O.".
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
hacked up adj.   Sufficiently patched, kluged, and tweaked that    the surgical scars are beginning to crowd out normal tissue (compare    {critical mass}).   Not all programs that are hacked become `hacked    up'; if modifications are done with some eye to coherence and    continued maintainability, the software may emerge better for the    experience.   Contrast {hack up}.
