The Sort

A socioeconomic phenomenon where highly intelligent and educated individuals are increasingly funneled into high-paying jobs, while those with less education or intelligence are "sorted" into lower-paying roles. This process amplifies class divides and concentrates wealth and opportunity among a cognitive and academic elite.

The term is often used on Tech Twitter/TPOT/the Tech Right.

Also called "the Great Sort", or "the Great Sorting"
I know the Sort happened but its nice to imagine a world where lots of manual laborers have 115+ IQs

Bubble Sort

Bubble Sort (AKA Sinking Sort) is a type of sorting algorithm. Bubble sort is only slightly effective when the list's order is already nearly correct. It's best at short lists but takes a very long time on large and extensive lists. Use this information for nothing :)
Things no Programmer has ever said before:
Programmer: I'm gonna use Bubble Sort for this extremely large and extensive list of all the words that are in Onelook
If you have said this, your dumber than a rock.
