Well, it's because his name is Phil Haack ... I actually like it :)
You are right though, his title tags on his blog aren't really descriptive... Which is uncommon for a "reasonable" popular blog (Haack is almost as known as Hanselman in the .Net world, untill he left Microsoft for Github a couple of years ago - he's been more quiet since then :-) )
I added an issue for his site here: https://github.com/Haacked/haacked.com/issues/178 (gotta love developers)

> I personally find that a tasteless slogan
I'd be interested to hearing why you feel that way. Perhaps there's an angle I hadn't considered.
It's supposed to be tongue in cheek. My last name is pronounced "Hack". Being hacked is usually a bad thing. But being "Haacked" is something you would like. At least, that's my goal! :)
Although when I went to share it in slack, the preview text was "You've been Haacked and you like it". I personally find that a tasteless slogan; but more-so it should be the title of the post I linked, not the site title.
I have a few aliases in my .bashrc file that I use:
alias git-branch-list='for k in `git branch|sed s/^..//`;do echo -e `git log -1 --pretty=format:"%Cgreen%ci %Cblue%cr%Creset" "$k"`\\t"$k";done|sort'
alias c="git commit -m '"
alias s='git status'
alias a='git add'
I use the first one to hop around branches and see when the branch was last updated. The others are just because I am super lazy. But reading the post I am moved to be even lazier!
