That's just like your opinion, man - The Dude

You're smart right? So, who's there more of, normies or computer scientists? Just make the tech, if that really is what you do, but marketing and the masses are always going to decide what we call stuff not some ~~cartoonist~~ engineer.

Uhhhh who do you think defines these specialized words in the first place? Not normies. That is the dumbest shit I've ever heard, thanks for the laugh.

I'm pleased you are entertained. But being correct doesn't make you any less wrong. I'm sorry that you don't understand how language works. Now go build us some more toys.

In general conversation? The people there are more of define it lol. In a professional setting yeah, be specific, but... Wait, where are we? Oh the fucking comments section on lemmy. Pretty much the exact opposite of a professional setting. Use the words how the people around you are using it, or you'll be misunderstood and have to explain yourself.
