Peterson Level of Abstraction 

A level of specificity too specific to be of concern to a layperson, but that is often discussed at great length by those concerned with minute details of the subject matter.
A: "But if the transmutation statute requiring written evidence kicks in after 1985, you can rebut the 1984 Anti-Lucas joint tenancy presumption written requirement with an oral or implied transmutation agreement from 1984 through 1985. And conversely, the oral or written rebuttal before the 1987 Anti-Lucas Joint Title Presumption can overcome the transmutation requirement from 1985 through 1987, right guys?"

B: "I guess... but do we really need to know all that? That sounds like a Peterson Level of Abstraction you're getting to there."

zero cost abstraction

A buzzword usually uttered by someone trying to sell you the idea that you should rewrite your project in Rust. It supposedly means "free" abstractions that don't come with overheads and penalties, but in reality they're anything but free.
If you hear someone use the term zero cost abstraction unironically, run as fast as you possibly can because you're cornered by a snake oil salesman.

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
