The act of simplifying a tool or item to the point where it is no longer practical to use. This word originates from the belief that Apple often creates impractically minimalist software.
E.g. You want to test if a woman is a witch. You burn witches, but you also burn wood. This means witches burn because they are made of wood. Wood also floats in water, just like a duck. So therefore, if she weighs the same as a duck, then she is made out of wood, and is therefore a witch. Now you must weigh her on a set of large scales with a duck, and if they weigh the same, she is guilty of being a witch.
P-Dub is a term, utilized by "urban health" social workers in British Columbia, Canada. P-Dub eloquently and succinctly refers to Persons with Disabilities (PWD) applications, which are submitted to the BC Ministry of Social Development & Poverty Reduction. Utilizing the term "P-Dub" makes the process of completing these lengthy applications less mind-numbing, thereby improving morale, enthusiasm, and staff retention in the long run.
Please say "P-Dub" the next time you are working on a PWD application, in order to feel united with your fellow social worker colleagues. Blessings!
