Dave: So, what do you think of React?
Tim: BIFI
Dave: OK, Golang?
Tim: BIFI
Dave: What about Node?
Tim: BIFI
Dave: Wow! Are there any technologies that are not BIFI by the estimation of software architects?!!
Tim: All technologies that fit a pro & con trade-off analysis! Unfortunately, none of the technologies you mentioned make the cut if a software architect were to put two and two together. Many wannabes these days don't even think about why they are applying a technology. They just monkey see monkey do!
Matthew: Tim, the software architect, told me that React is BIFI, but I don’t understand why?!!
Joe: React assumes a dumb audience to start, among many other reasons.
Matthew: Are you suggesting they assume I am dumb if I were to use React?
Joe: Exactly! For example, bidirectional (two-way) data-binding has been a staple in desktop application GUI development for decades, but React refuses to support it because they say most developers are too dumb to reason about it successfully.
Matthew: What’s wrong with that!? They’re making things more easy for us, no!?
Joe: I doubt any beginner would call React’s style of code easy, so I’m not sure they are anywhere near the target they claimed they were aiming at if that’s what you’re asking.
Matthew: Are you suggesting the makers of React themselves are dumb too?!!
Joe: Now, you’re truly getting to the bottom of why Tim used the term BIFI about them. React is literally By Idiots For Idiots!

Get the BIFI mug.Bobby: I keep following answers on StackOverflow, but the bug keeps getting worse and worse! Too bad, I forgot to commit my code to Git. I'm screwed!
Miles: Didn't I tell you StackOverflow is BLB??! Just get help from one of the seniors in the other team! It's that simple!.

Tom: It's a fire pit. You've never seen one before?
Steven: Oh, I have seen many, but usually at the ski resort or in the woods
Tom: Yeah, I'm trying to pursue caveman unevolvism. That is relying on real wood and fire at home instead of central air-conditioning

Get the unevolvism mug.Someone who is fake and thinks honesty is lame. As such, they avoid honesty at all costs and like to always project a fake image of themselves instead that gives a sense of importance without truly being important. Obviously, other fakesters eat it up without a clue. That is because not all fakesters are even aware they are fakesters. Some have become that way since they were very little by copying older fakesters they thought were fun at the time without thinking. Anyways, fakesters are known as people who talk a lot without doing much. Some love the fake important image they project due to how much fun it seems, but when things get serious, people always realize it in the end and don't truly rely on them with anything or give them any important jobs. Fakesters often serve as clowns in high school who amount to nothing after they graduate.
Monica: And, here is the bed room. As you can see it's got a beautiful view of the city just like the apartment rental ad shows.
Dorothy: All I can see is the dirty back alley and some garbage truck containers.
Monica: No, you gotta look farther! See, that's a boutique clothing store right there!
Dorothy: Seeing a clothing store at the end of a very long and dirty alley doesn't count as city view. You're nothing but a fakester!

Caroline: And, who might that be?
Stephanie: Scott's girlfriend!
Caroline: Oh no!
Stephanie: And, she wouldn't stop yapping about her new degree in "Women's Studies"... I mean how much more of a dummy could she be to want to do a whole degree about what she should have known to begin with by being a woman!?!
Caroline: Yeah, she is just a lamester you know!?! What else did you expect?!
Stephanie: Well, I expected some class... but, I got trash! Scott has become quite lame too for going out with such a woman!
Caroline: Tell me about it. I think I'm deleting him from my friends' circle of trust. Lame people have no place among us!
