Comprocide 

A combination of the word compromise and the latin suffix -cide (killer, act of killing).
Used when the focus have been on reaching a compromise rather than the end result, rendering the outcome diluted and bland.
After everyone finally had come to agreement, they looked at the poor result and realized that they only achieved comprocide.

compsoy parrot

A normally programming adjacent person (does not do any real programming, aka a compsoy person), who fills up their word dictionary with technical nonsense buzz words, spews them condescendingly, with or without understanding what they are actually talking about.
Compsoy parrot: I get the impression that you believe that these development skills are linear. This is not the case, as codebases live in multi-dimensional lossy conceptual spaces. When new developers arrive, it's valuable to ensure that there is a diverse array of conceptual entrypoints for them.

Person 2: I get the impression that you don't mind that i spent the last night with your mother. She was really impressed by my non-linear development skills. Now shut up you compsoy parrot, and try doing some actual programming instead of spewing random garbage
