koso

Programmers and other types of technical folks that Kind Of Sort Of (KOSO) know what they are doing, but not really. This is precisely the kind of thing that happens when non-programmers try to program. The kind of people that copy and paste bits and pieces of things from the Internet to solve a problem, but don't understand data structures, or logic.
Look at this spreadsheet , the data is all there and then it is copy and pasted into another cell instead of making it a reference, it must have been a koso. Simply writing stuff down doesn't make it technical.

professional naysayer

A person whose sole function in an organization is to point out flaws in recommended plans and approaches. This person never provides reasonable insights of their own volition rather just point out flaws of other ideas.
