programsturbation

What a software engineer does when s/he's bored and should really be doing serious work.

Dude, I couldn't write any more of those TPS reports...I've been programsturbating all day animating hamsters to sync with 80s songs. I'm so burned.

programsturbating = doing programsturbation

Progasm

When you're a total narcissus about your profession and think you're so much better than anyone else at it, it gets you off.

God I love my job, I'm such a success and do it so well it gives me a progasm!

programcrastinating

Learning to code or creating programs for fun instead of doing what you should actually be doing.

Programming Dysphoria

Also known as: Code Dysphoria.

Jeff to Himself: "I can't believe this code works, how is this even working? This doesn't make sense. This is not supposed to work. But then why doesn't this code work..."

programmery

When your code or software architecture is supposedly or actually good-programmer-like.

Like sciency but for code.

Your code will be very much more better if you up the programmerness and make it more programmery.

A good software developer should know their programmery jargon like: encapsulation, inheritance, dependency, abstraction...
