In the field of software development, Priyankism is the unfortunately common phenomenon of code that looks sensible at face value, but after close inspection is actually redundant and/or misleading.
The terms originates from mythical developer Priyanka R. who was notorious for sprinkling all the software she touched with this kind of code.
Developer A: "Man, I spent an hour trying to understand what this function actually does, and it turns out it was doing absolutely nothing!"
Developer B: "Tell me about it! That codebase is full of Priyankisms"
n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the gamealive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because idstill sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
