pseudocode 

Pseudocode is a description of a computer programming algorithm that uses the structural conventions of programming languages, but omits detailed subroutines or language-specific syntax. It can also refer to a high level 'language' whose aim is to generalise the logic and program flow of a computer program
An example of how pseudocode differs from regular code is below.

Regular code (written in PHP):

<?php
if (is_valid($cc_number)) {
execute_transaction($cc_number, $order);
} else {
show_failure();
}
?>

Pseudocode:

if credit card number is valid
execute transaction based on number and order
else
show a generic failure message
end if

pseudo-woke 

People who "woke" for the sake of social validation
Kids nowadays are pseudo-woke, they follow all of the activism-thingy for "Anti-Social Media reaction" instead of truly advocating marginalized people

Chick-fil-A is a pseudo-woke, they bow down to woke culture while practicing homophobia at the same time

pseudowork 

The kind of work that Clark does, which is really the illusion of actual work. To the untrained eye, it looks like he is doing work, but people like Fred and I know better.
Me: So what's Clark supposedly doing?

Fred: Oh, he's goofing off at Eglin.

Me: He's doing pseudowork again?

Fred: Yep. He claims he's working on something, but we know better than that.

Me: Yeah, that sounds like him.
