Stackoverflow has a great list of terms programmers have come up with where the standard jargon just didn’t cut it. A few gems in here, see if you can guess what the following might be:
Yoda conditions – arrg, right up there with with leaving off the ?> in PHP, “training wheels best practices” …
shrug report – I get this on a daily basis
Egyptian brackets
Refuctoring – one word speaks volumes
Stringly typed – one of my favs – check out Yii framework if you’re unfamiliar with the concept
Heisenbug – an old and painful classic, I get them all the time
Fear Driven Development – I think we’ve all been there
Baklava code – this one is just begging to enter your vocabulary
This is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long while. I can easily see them making money, setting up a paid service where membership allows you to import content of your choice
