Thread pool is a collection of pre-initialized, idle threads that are ready to execute tasks. In network programming, it optimizes the use of system resources by reusing threads for multiple tasks. Ironically, the name sounds like the title of the movie your parents think is too inappropriate for you to watch.
I tried explaining about thread pool to my friends, but all they could think about was how it sounded like that movie they aren't allowed by their parents to see.

Get the airplane mode FOMOmug. A K-12 school originally named "Madania," humorously rebranded with the suffix "-aka," which stands for "also known as." This playful term suggests that "Madafaka" is an alternate, cheeky name for the school, often used in jest.
When my friend said he went to Madafaka School, I couldn't help but laugh; it's just a funny twist on Madania that everyone uses to lighten the mood!

Get the resolution delaymug. A slang term for movies, like Whiplash (2014), that struggle to secure substantial funding and are often created as short films to be submitted to film festivals first, aiming to gain recognition and support for full-length productions.
