one way

This is a Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (Csgo) term.
In Csgo there is a utility grenade that gives a competitive advantage when used correctly, called a smoke grenade, or smoke for short. This term revolves around the usage of the smoke grenade.
An "one way" is refering to a cleverly placed smoke grenade that allows only one direction of vision. In other words: "I see you, but you can't see me."
This happens commonly in Csgo because the game is extremely competitive and any advantage will cause a victory.
The term became popular because it's a quick way to alert your team of the threat, because an one way smoke will cause massive losses to the enemy.
"Did you smoke snipers nest?"
"NO, it's a one way, WATCHOUT."
Note: Snipers nest is a common one way position in csgo, watchout.

Experiment of one

I’ve become particularly impressed with AI and especially one called Poe (and its bot assistants). This is an edited definition* of one this AI-powered chatbot churned out in a matter of seconds:

An "experiment of one" refers to a type of experimental design where an individual serves as both the subject and the experimenter. In this type of experiment, the individual tests a hypothesis or investigates a research question by manipulating variables and observing the outcomes on themselves. It is a self-experimentation approach that allows individuals to gather data and draw conclusions based on their own experiences.

Examples of Experiment of One:
1. Personal Health and Lifestyle: An individual may conduct an experiment of one to test the effects of different diets, exercise routines, or sleep patterns on their own health and well-being.
2. Cognitive Performance: Someone might investigate the impact of various study techniques, memory strategies, or environmental factors on their own cognitive performance through an experiment of one.
3. Productivity and Time Management: An individual may experiment with different productivity techniques, work schedules, or task prioritization methods to optimize their own productivity and time management skills.
*************
I can't do better than that, but I will add that this is sometimes abbreviated as "n=1" or "n of 1."

*Only edited for length — the original was too long for Urban Dictionary’s space parameters.
In an **experiment of one**, Dr. Kessler tested his willpower by buying two gooey chocolate chip cookies that he didn't plan to eat. (Source: "How the Food Makers Captured Our Brains." Tara Parker-Pope. New York Times.

An oft-used phrase is "Each of us is an **experiment of one**."

The Next One

Oh! Right! That last one wasn't supposed to be the next one but I forgot. Parental Dictatorship! One thing you hear a lot is "The had to steal because the needed to feed their family"
Hym "See, this was supposed to be the next one before the alien one but I forgot and then I fell into a convenient rejoinder to this one and here we are. Parental Dictatorship! All of the immoral things are justified if it's done in the name of programming the people I have unquestionable dominion over! And my NEED to have dominion over THEM... Requires me to have dominion over YOU... Which means I need to YOU to cede control of your own behavior... To ME... Because I need to feel as though you are sufficiently under control... And if I DON'T... Well, then I need to find a way to MAKE YOU DEMONSTRATE PERFORMATIVELY that you are willing to allow me to control your behavior to some extent... Because if I'm not in comtrol of you... YOU AREN'T GOING TO CONTROL YOU RIGHT! Parental Dictatorship! It's why when Russell Brand (allegedly) rapes little girls it's 'bound to happen' but when people being kept in an artificial state of poverty do it they need to be 'given hell' by a sniveling, whiney, crybaby bitch of a gomer. He's rich and famous! Why would he NOT think he's just gets to do whatever he wants? And he's a parent now! So, he's redeemed. Redemption by way of a women shitting out a fuck-trophy for him. He's been anointed by the priestess and is, therefore, ome of the chosen."
