Get the bitchmarks mug.1. A reference mark that something is measured against. The original benchmarks are places on the workbench used to measure common lengths of material, such as lumber.
2. In surveying, a "bench mark" (two words) is a post or other permanent mark established at a known elevation that is used as the basis for measuring the elevation of other topographical points.
In computer and Internet technology, the term may have any of these meanings:
1) A set of conditions against which a product or system is measured. PC magazine laboratories frequently test and compare several new computers or computer devices against the same set of application programs, user interactions, and contextual situations. The total context against which all products are measured and compared is referred to as the benchmark.
2) A program that is specially designed to provide measurements for a particular operating system or application.
3) A known product with which users are familiar or accustomed to that other newer products can be compared to.
4) A set of performance criteria which a product is expected to meet.

Laboratory benchmarks sometimes fail to reflect real-world product use. For this reason, Eric Raymond defines a benchmark as "an inaccurate measure of computer performance" and cites the "old hacker's saying" that "In the computer industry, there are three kinds of lies: lies, damn lies, and benchmarks."
Still, benchmarks can be useful and some companies offer benchmark programs for downloading or a benchmark testing service on their own site.

Get the benchmarks mug.An alpha female that intentionally or unintentionally turns a beta male into her bitch. It usually occurs when a guy is attracted to the woman, but she is not attracted to him except as “just a friend”. In this situation if the woman asks the man to do a favor for her he will be glad to do it because he is still attracted to her. The woman continues to ask him to do more and more “favors” for her and he eventually basically becomes her lackey or her bitch. This is a very beneficial situation for the woman because she can use him to do things like running errands or waxing her car, but she is doesn’t have to do anything for him.
