junk data

Inaccurate or useless data. A piece of data that, when compiled with a large body of like information, falls well outside of the typical parameters. Such data is usually discarded to maintain the integrity of a given study.

We could not arrive at an intelligible conclusion until we through out the junk data.

Data Design Interactive

Quite possibly THE worst videogame developer in the history of mankind. They are responsible for many shovelware titles that score no higher than 1.0 out of 10 and should be banned from making games for Nintendo's Wii. There is also an online petition to ban the company from developing for Nintendo.

(you): Yo, this "Action Girlz Racing" is looking pretty badass.
(friend): Nah nigga, Data Design Interactive made that one. It scored 0.8 out of 10!

Daiyaan

A South African male name that is commonly used among Muslim society

The name usually belongs to an enthusiastic being with the face of an angel but even the devil on his shoulder is doubting his life choices. He also has the procrastination level of a million.

Despite Daiyaan's flaws he is trustworthy and honest.

Daiyaan's also usually seem to be down to earth and chilled .

He's such a Daiyaan, but that's a good thing... Sometimes.

"No Pete, the Data Monkey has only had the jobsheet for 6 days, I'll have it for Christmas...I think."

Data Rape

The gratuitous manipulation and willful monetisation of all personal data by companies without due recognition or reward back to either user or humanity

data rape is when software organisations use the data collected by people-users to build their businesses, make millions in exits, charge escalating subscription fees, erode trust, service and user experience and fail to give a fair ROI back to either the user or "collective humanity" in return.
