bytebeat 

Bytebeat is a term referring to a form of algorithmic music or sound generation. It involves creating music or sound by directly manipulating bytes of data, typically in the form of simple mathematical expressions or algorithms that generate audio waveforms. Bytebeat compositions often consist of short, repetitive sequences of sound that emerge from the interaction of the mathematical expressions with the byte data.

Bytebeat gained popularity in the demoscene and among algorithmic music enthusiasts due to its simplicity and the intriguing results that can be achieved with minimal code. It's often associated with low-level programming languages like C and assembly, as well as with retro computing platforms.

Bytebeat compositions can vary widely in style and complexity, ranging from simple loops of beeps and tones to more complex and melodic sequences. The appeal of bytebeat lies in its ability to produce interesting and unexpected sounds using very concise code, making it a unique form of creative expression within the realm of algorithmic music.

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.

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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."
