An acronym for Time and Experience = Knowledge. A TEK is a guide created by someone who put in the time to figure out how to do something and documented it online for others (who could then follow the guide and try to reproduce the results). A TEK is in contrast to knowledge passed down in schools or textbooks for example. A TEK is a different type of knowledge born out of personal experimentation and online research.

Get the TEK mug.A derogatory term for technical deathcore and technical death metal, coined by the infamous Metal Archives review writer Bitterman. Presumably conceived as a way to avoid calling the genre an actual type of metal.
"So, what type of metal do you listen to?"
"Rings of Saturn, mostly"
"Ugh, I can't stand that tek-deaf wankery"
"Rings of Saturn, mostly"

Get the phone tek mug.To type up math notes during a lecture using the Tex or LaTeX markup languages. While it is difficult to do, and it requires learning the language well and being able to type it fast, it results in digital notes that look quite nice and are easier to edit or search through than handwritten notes.
My handwriting is bad, and I always lose physical notes, so I just live-tek these calculus lectures.
