!=

Definition: "not equal to."

Background: In most popular programming languages, "!" belongs to a class of operators known as "logic operators." Basically, it just stands for "not", "opposite", or "false", depending on what the context is. Two other operators are in this class: "||" for "or", and "&&" for "and".

"!=" belongs to another class of operators called "comparison operators." Also in this class are things like "==" (equals), ">=" (greater than or equal to), "<" (less than), etc.

5 != 6 :: Five (is) not equal to Six.

Short != Tall :: Short (is) not equal to Tall

Galantir

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
