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.

Gopher

A user of the programming language Go, created by Google. The brain behind the language basically describes Gophers as retarded children and I quote "They’re typically, fairly young, fresh out of school, probably learned Java, maybe learned C or C++, probably learned Python. They’re not capable of understanding a brilliant language but we want to use them to build good software. So, the language that we give them has to be easy for them to understand and easy to adopt."

I am a Gopher and Rob is our Lord.
