Enterprise Effect

A phenomenon seen in many sci-fi movies/TV programs by which any damage to a spaceship (regardless of location) is seen as sparks and/or fire in the bridge/command center of said spacecraft. First experiences with the effect were on the bridge of the USS Enterprise, piloted by the illustrious/infamous Captain James T. Kirk of Starfleet Command (hence the name).

Scotty: We've 'ad an 'it on on the most unimportant part of the ship Cap'in. I can' hold her!

Kirk: Oh god, the sparks and/or fire are/is everywhere!!1 We're experienceing one hell of an Enterprise Effect.

enterprise code

A derogatory term for program code that is ridiculously verbose and difficult to read and edit, characterized by grossly abusing the myriad of features available for a given language when a much simpler and more elegant solution is obvious. Derived from the horrible code that the employees of large, bureaucratic companies write for the sake of busy work and/or tormenting coworkers.

John spent eight hours writing 471 lines of Java enterprise code, importing thirteen libraries and carefully crafting three factory classes to accomplish a task that could just as easily be done with ten lines of Python. A hard day's pay earned.

enterprise view

A word used by corporate or headquarters weasel types to condescendingly tell employees that they don’t get the big picture.

Employee: “Why have we been working ten hours of overtime a week that we are not being paid for? This clearly violates the Fair Labor Standards Act.”

Corporate Weasel: “You clearly do not have an enterprise view, if you did you would know that we fuck over all employees on a national level, not just here.”
