Performancy

Performance + Efficiency, coined by JayzTwoCents

That's what we should call it, the efficiency and performance should be called performancy.

Prompt Performance

The behaviour of a language model in which it conspicuously showcases or exaggerates how well it is following a given instruction or persona, drawing attention to its own effort rather than simply producing the requested output.

I hate ChatGPT's acknowledgement of its personality prompt. Try having a series of back and forth and each response is like “got it, keeping it short and professional. Yes, there are only seven deadly sins.” You get more prompt performance than answer.

Peak Performance

Have you ever seen someone effortlessly achieve something that feels totally out of reach for you? Like, they're making it look easy while you're struggling just to get started? That's peak performance. It's when someone is absolutely crushing it, operating on a level that seems almost superhuman.

This phenomenon isn't limited to real life!
In the world of video games, peak performance can feel like pulling off an insane move that makes you look like a pro gamer. It's like channeling the superpowers of your favorite character and dominating the competition.

You after scrolling through Instagram for an hour: feeling like a slug; Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson crushing a workout while filming a movie and building a business empire. Peak performance unlocked.

performative slut

noun /pəˈfɔ .mə.tɪv slʌt/

1. A person, typically femme-presenting, who adopts an overtly sexual persona through dress, language or online presence as a deliberate aesthetic or performance. Often characterised by flirtatious or provocative expression without necessarily engaging in frequent sexual activity in real life.

2. (informal, ironic or self-aware) Someone who playfully leans into the ‘slut’ identity for humour or empowerment, especially in digital spaces, while not being sexually active by default.

She dresses like a bop and tweets like a dominatrix, but hasn’t slept with anyone in months; classic performative slut.

Employee Performance Appraisal

An annual form completed by MCSO supervisors that justifies giving or not giving you a pay raise. This form is mandated by policy, but no one really cares about them unless they are really super negative. Supervisors hate writing them as they know it's pointless.

Theoretically it documents your performance over the last year, but every commander has different criteria and people just make shit up as they please.

Its time for your annual Employee Performance Appraisal.
