arrested development

Stunted formative years due to your frequently getting cuffed by da cops.

Mike Hamar tells Red Green how he knew da legal system --- and da back seat of a patrol car --- inside and out before he was sixteen, yet as an adult he still acts really naive and immature about many other topics; sounds like a classic case of arrested development to me.

Develope

The archaic spelling of the word, develop. Though spelling it in this manner has fallen out of use, it technically is not incorrectly spelled. However, you are still wrong if you use it instead of the more modern spelling.

Boss's Email: Joe, did you develope those pictures I sent you?
Joe: Hey Bob, what the heck is develope?
Bob: That's the archaic spelling of develop.
Joe: Did the boss mean develop?
Bob: I'm sure he did, best get on it.

Lifestyle developer

(Noun) A software developer whose primary motivation for programming is to afford a specific lifestyle rather than for the joy of coding, passion for the industry, or energy derived from the work. Often associated with digital nomads who work from various countries throughout the year.

(Slang) A programmer who prioritizes quick financial gain and the freedom to work remotely over maintaining best practices such as automatic testing, code quality, and team collaboration. Their focus on rapid feature launches often comes at the expense of long-term code sustainability.

Jake is a total lifestyle developer. He spends more time planning his next trip to Bali than ensuring his code is up to standard. Automated tests? Code quality? Team collaboration? Nah, as long as the money keeps rolling in, he's happy.
