[10:16:22] <FatPhil> time to shake some dust off the old brainlobes...
[10:17:55] <boru> Trepanation?
[10:18:19] <FatPhil> can anyone think of any fashionable terms from a decade ago that took over as the term for the feature/property/whatever, but now you never hear the term at all.
[10:19:07] <FatPhil> ones which wre "dafuq, this is a retarded term, marketting people should just kill themselves" at the time
[10:20:04] <FatPhil> I just paused and then spat out "drill down", as I couldn't think of the sensible English for what I was trying to say.
[10:20:37] <boru> I've got no shortage of those, but a deficit of time to list them.
[10:20:47] <FatPhil> and I noticed that I really haven't seen much, if any, drilling down for years.
[10:22:27] <FatPhil> any extreme ones where you particularly hated and avoided the term?
[10:23:27] <FatPhil> I'm sure there are some programming paradigms that have pissed me off, but most of those are still in use.
[10:24:47] <FatPhil> most just fall into the "silly, but I'll let you invent your fruity little terms if you have to", but "drill down" was sheer hate.
