@slack_overflow
by Claudia Bridgens
Stack Overflow is an online forum dedicated to programming questions. The site has over 20 million registered users, an active community and is an integral source of information for developers. Over time the website has formed its own vernacular, in which common words have been given new definitions.
Claudia creates short poems by combining original comments found on the site highlighting the dissonance between these terms of art and their layman definitions. The work ironically explores productivity in the technology community. Each line is borrowed in its entirety. All content is the user's own. Claudia works in London as an analyst and writer. @slack__overflow.

This breaking of the link between syntax and behaviour
How I explained REST to my wife;
Busy or non-busy waiting
I feel it’s pointless to try to explain REST
It’s undefined
FunWhat is the difference between sleep and wait?
Fun()
Everything is an object Yes, objects
Just like any object, it is an instance of “something”
Everything is an object
Spaces are meaningful (sometimes)
InheritanceWith all the undeniable benefits provided by inheritance, here’s some of it’s disadvantages
Inheritance exposes protected members
Dependency between the child and its parent is introduced
In one sentence inheritance is public
Diamond inheritance issues
ImportantDo something appropriate here
Else: # Do nothing
Do_important()
Else:
Horrify
!Funny syntax
The language won’t stop you
Writing English properly is stupid
Stop being surprised by this!
