software paternalism

A software design problem where user decisions subordinate to defaults selected by the architect. Oftentimes, the user is thought to be too incompetent or stupid to use the software but truthfully, there is a lack of interest in allowing the program to be flexible.

Compare to droolproof paper -which is the case when something is designed so dumbed down that it adversely affects the functionality.

Apple products are terrible in general because they suffer from software paternalism.

Paternal pompador

A male sperm donor who likes to call himself daddy but refuses to perform duties that come with being a father; often times having multiple children and not talking care of any of them. This particular father is a whole lot of "fluff" in terms of parenting but not much else, thus making him similar to the hairstyle pompador.

My coworker is such a paternal pompador. He's got 5 kids and I'd be shocked if he can tell you any of their names.
