I'm a bit skeptical about the word "modern" these days. slackpkg is a good package manager and does everything you need to keep your system up-to-date. From the slackware website:

"Slackware is designed around the idea that the system should be a complete installation kept updated with any official patches. This avoids the mess of dependencies that some other Linux based GNU systems face."

Why remake the website? The website is clear enough, has links to the Slackware Book and to a mailing list.

What if I plug a pendrive in one of these devices and install an app that reads every network activity? If I have the same sequence of packages required to authenticate, I'm in?

The creativity part of programming requires a good sense of usability, a good sense of how to organize things nicely and those things require some sort talent yes.

The same applies to language and grammatics. One thing is to write a phrase well, other thing is to transmit the right emotions with the phrase you write.
