Expression used as a placeholder for a variable name in the interest of minimizing time spent naming, as well as to minimize the time elapsed mechanically actuating the keys of a QWERTY keyboard whilst using the left hand positioned in the home row of the keyboard. Often considered to be a negative code smell and associated with sloppy programming. Patent pending.

In mathematics, a von Neumann algebra or W*-algebra is a *-algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space that is closed in the weak operator topology and contains the identity operator. It is a special type of C*-algebra.
The bounded operators on any Hilbert space form a von Neumann algebra, which is some the dopest shit I seen.
