10xer

A mythical creature that mostly lives in the heads of people who frequent online forums like Hacker News, or suffered brain hemorrhage due to the insane amount of LeetCode they engaged in. This creature is usually a developer that supposedly produces 10 times the output of the average developer, and they are usually found (according to the legend) doing some useful task (mainly figuring out how to add another abusive way to increase ad clicks) at FAANG and similar enterprises.
Santa and 10xers are very popular characters.

zero cost abstraction

A buzzword usually uttered by someone trying to sell you the idea that you should rewrite your project in Rust. It supposedly means "free" abstractions that don't come with overheads and penalties, but in reality they're anything but free.
If you hear someone use the term zero cost abstraction unironically, run as fast as you possibly can because you're cornered by a snake oil salesman.

Webshit

A derogatory term generally used for web developers; but mostly for a specific breed of web devs that never built non-trivial projects that are not web related, or used something other than web stack. They usually think that JS and Electron ( that whole stack) are the best thing since sliced bread, or more immorally, they think JS is a decent language. They jerk each other off whenever a new framework that does yet another anti-feature in a very convoluted way is introduced.
Oh, for fuck's sake, the webshits are losing their shit over a new JS framework that apparently helps you add left padding.
