terms of trade

(ECONOMICS) the effective ratio whereby a country exchanges its goods with those of another country. Hence, a country that exports (say) mostly coffee and chocolate has to import almost everything else; if the price of chocolate and coffee declines, the country has no choice but to increase production of both, further reducing the price of both on world markets, and increasing the relative cost of everyhting it imports.

Terms of trade are determined notionally by the forex markets, but more fundamentally by (a) the markets for commodities, and (b) the ability of the country to finance transitions to other, higher-priced export goods.
Terms of trade typically lead to very high real exchange rates for currencies like the Indian rupee.

Terse Code

Code written in a manner that makes it difficult for those other than the original programmer to read.
Billy was screwed when he went to update his Java classes because he wanted to be a douche and write terse code.

Yoga TERF

A nasty wack ass hippie kombucha loving trans exclusionary radical feminist. Usually white, classist, racist but under the guise of thinking she's "classier" than you. Lives in liberal city, identifies probably as a democrat. Maybe she went to a liberal arts college but thinks that women and vaginas are the same thing. Shops at the local co-op, farmers market, maybe she does aerial silk dancing, pole-dancing, is vegan, but low key loves slut shaming her friends. Is sweet but completely fake as fuck just like the stevia she adds to her cold brew. No amount of probiotics, meditation, or yoni steaming are able to get this bitches head out of her ass....

Teresa nothing

Sexy, Hot, babe that has a gorges body thats unresistible, big nice soft boobs, round attractive ass. Her kisses drive me crazy, along with her teasing on my neck that almost makes me moan. Her hands wonder up my shirt and around my body, making me want her more than i already do. Then she'll get closer, hand go farther up or down x), kisses becoming more intense, and then she gets me hard. making me fall in love with her again and again.
