Tab-Hop

The act of rapidly switching between multiple browser tabs, each running separate AI/GPT/Chat sessions, to simulate the productivity of an over-caffeinated think tank. A digital power move used by engineers, researchers, and chaos-loving polymaths to multiply AI output without melting down their own brain.

Origin:
First coined in 2025 by a rainforest-dwelling tech veteran who discovered that with enough browser tabs and GPT threads, you could basically LARP as a one-man DARPA.

Related Terms:
* Prompt Jockey – someone who rides AI prompts across multiple sessions like a rodeo cowboy.
* Context Siloing – isolating ideas across threads due to stateless session memory.
* RAM-Juggling – trying to mentally track which thread is doing what because you didn’t name your chats properly.

Pro Tips:
* Always label your threads so future-you doesn’t have a breakdown.
* Pin critical sessions like you’re building a command center.
* Just don’t ask the cocktail bot for help with your Kubernetes YAML.
"I had five projects due and one brain cell left, so I started tab-hopping like I was running an AI blacksite."

Recent Tab

The Recent Tab is a Geometry Dash reference where it's a tab in the search area where it shows the most recent user-created levels uploaded to GD.

Many of the levels here are unrated, which means most of them will be absolute trash, but in some cases, you can find a really cool level.

Tabbing

When you’re high on stims and you wanna have a wank so you go on pornhub to find the perfect video and click a video with a good thumbnail, then see another good thumbnail in the suggestions so you open it up in a new tab to see if it’s good, with intention to go back to the old one over and over again and end up with hundreds of porn tabs open and don’t even end up fapping
Ive been tabbing for hours because im stimming so hard
