G+_Steven Erickson Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I have a suggestion for an episode. While this idea won't appeal to the veteran code monkeys, I think it would be a good idea to have an episode that focuses on the terms that programmers use. As someone who is looking to make a career change into developing, I often get sidetracked and confused by industry terms and having Lou and Padre go over common terms and what they mean could be very helpful to the aspiring coders. I.e, terms like git, framework, stacks (full stack, etc), acronyms (API, IDE, etc), etc.) I think you guys can come up with a list that could cover the industry and help beginners get a leg up when trying to talk shop.

G+_Louis Maresca Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Steven this is an interesting idea. We might need to bucket terms into categories too.thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Steven Erickson Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 I think that's a good idea. It may not have to be a whole episode, it could be a segment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Michael Heinz Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 What, you don't grok when I brag that my boxen are AI-Complete? You're going to trigger my Amiga Persecution Complex. I would suggest you check out the Jargon File, it's fairly obsolete at this point, but still useful from a hysterical perspective. http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Matthew Reardon Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Yeah I agree with Steven. I recently looked up closures on Wikipedia. It was unintelligible to me. I have used foldoc.org to look abbreviations up. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Lee Crocker Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Yeah, closures would take an episode of its own to do justice to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
