Any substance which is a solute that lowers the freezing point of a solvent. Water(Hydrogen oxide) is the usual solvent. The solute is usually sodium chloride, calcium chloride, ethylene glycol(toxic), propylene glycol(non-toxic, safe), 1,2-Butyleneglycol(nontoxic) glycerol(nontoxic), ethanol, and a tick protein called IAFGP. Ticks have a protein called IAFGP that is triggered during winter months, which protects them from the cold. The freezing point of the solution gets lowered. Freezing point depression is a colligative property.

I put propylene glycol antifreeze in my car and it resisted freezing in the winter. The dog accidentally drank some propylene glycol but turned out fine. If it would have been ethylene glycol, the dog would have died.

Antifreeze tick gene

A gene that allows ticks to produce an antifreeze protein to resist frostbite and lower the freezing point of blood. The ticks have a protein called IAFGP that is triggered during winter months, which protects them from the cold. Mice that were injected with the protein were able to not get frostbite at subzero temperatures. They then genetically engineered the mice and breed them to have babies with the gene and they produced the antifreeze protein, IAFGP. The mice resists frostbite. One day, some humans could genetically engineer themselves with the antifreeze tick gene. That way, there's no more frostbite at subzero temperatures(below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, 0 degrees Celsius) until much lower temperatures(like 5 degrees Fahrenheit, -15 degrees Celsius or something). Eventually, the technology will be affordable to all.

Tyler: I just genetically engineered myself with the antifreeze tick gene. Now I don't have to worry about frostbite.

Antifreeze

Antifreeze is that greenish yellow liquid your dad puts in the car. It's ethylene glycol. It keeps the car's cooling engine from freezing. It's done in cold places and it's a tradition that goes from generation to generation. Don't drink it though, or you'll die. It's sweet tasting, but deadly toxic if you drink it.

You: Dad? What's that yucky green stuff you're putting in the car?
Dad: That's antifreeze! Someday you'll follow in my footsteps and winter-proof your car engine.

Galantir

Susie wasn’t sure if her new Hinge match was a creep, so she assembled Galantir and they found out he used to post slurs on gaming forums.

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."
