Sonification of Materials

The broad practice of turning the intrinsic properties or dynamic behaviors of materials—their stress under load, thermal expansion, nanoscale vibrations, or degradation over time—into sound. This allows engineers to "listen for failure" in bridges or airplane wings, or for artists to create installations where a sculpture's sound changes as it rusts or bends.

Sonification of Materials Example: To test a new carbon fiber alloy, engineers attach sensors and sonify the material's stress during load tests. A clean, harmonic sound indicates even stress distribution. The sudden emergence of a grinding, dissonant frequency directly signals the onset of a micro-fracture long before it's visible, providing an acoustic early-warning system.

shitification

describes a trend where the quality of online products and services gradually deteriorates. Initially, vendors introduce high-quality offerings to draw in users. Over time, they reduce this quality to cater more to business customers. Eventually, they lower standards further for both users and business clients to prioritize profit maximization for shareholders.

The shitification of Google continues. Yesterday I noticed that the almost essential cache: feature has finally gone. Nevermind. Competitors like Yandex & Bing aren't self-hobbling their features. Also Google Lens via rightclick seems to have lost the translate feature on Chrome

Sextification

The anticipation of a sexual encounter with a partner. Sexy plus anticipation equals sextification.

Every time I wait for my boyfriend to come home after a long trip gives me the greatest sextification. I can't wait to have sex with him.

She said she wanted to have sex tonight. The sextification is kelling me.

SaaSification

The unholy ritual where a perfectly fine one-time purchase software gets sacrificed to the subscription gods, forcing companies to pay monthly for what used to be theirs forever. Symptoms include sudden charges, constant "Pro Version" pop-ups, and an existential crisis over whether you really need another $9.99/mo service to rotate PDFs.

The in-house solution was working perfectly, so naturally the managers opted for SaaSification of the program

Satisfication

A state of psychological acceptance derived from choosing an option that meets minimum criteria for adequacy, rather than pursuing an ideal outcome. Often accompanied by a sense of calm, mundane relief, or practical closure.

Narrative: "It wasn't exactly what she was looking for, but it met her needs. That was enough for satisfication."

Speaking:
"I don't care what you think, his satisfication is paramount."
"...do you mean satisfaction?"
"What? The hell are you talking about?"
"Satisfication isn't a real word. I think you mean-"
"No, I mean 'satisfication.' If he feels satisfied, we've done too much."
"...ok then..."
