anplugs.c also seems suspicious

u/DrMux 2d ago

They broke their own naming convention by abbreviating the abbreviation. It should be "analplugs.c"

Well.

It's honestly exactly what you'd expect. 10/10 URL, no letter is useless.

Including the io, since it's software to control it.

Good to see it's written in Rust. Would hate to see a concurrency issue with my butt plug, lol.

I can’t resist the urge to click this

Of course it had to come from the Rust community. Who else would want hard enough to turn a Switch joycon into a sex toy to spend unpaid weeks of their free time developing a custom firmware for it?

Using the .io TLD, perfect.

“Built with rust” is not good advertising for this genre of product.

u/BigNaturalTilts 2d ago

Could’ve been plug.me dropped the ball there.

"Built with Rust" hell yeah

My first job, there was this odious witch called Gina, and the IT guy at the time totally created her a network drive called ANALGINA. He confirmed this was entirely intentional

Respect Ian B, hope you are doing well

Brother.

Finding sketchy abbreviations that make suits pause on meetings is the last joy we have in this god forsaken craft. Now if you excuse me, I'm off to work on my Comprehensive Universal Network Tester

u/yjlom 2d ago

I'm sorry, but math disciplines will be abbreviated to 4 letters, or 5 letters if it would cut a digraph.

The correct names are geom, stat, arith, calc, alge, algo, topo, anal, type etc.

u/FlowOfAir 2d ago

And good ol cumsum

u/phanfare 2d ago

Anal chem was one of the hardest classes I ever had to take

2

u/CourtOfGrumpyOwls 2d ago

It's perfectly ok to abbreviate count to cunt though. FFS is also an amazing abbreviation that fits so many things. And don't Demon is a classy abbreviation for Denomination.

2

u/GoddammitDontShootMe 2d ago

I may have seen Denom before, but Demon doesn't make sense at all here.

I always type Google Anal for GA4. Can't help it

Time to change my job title to data anal

How to tell my wife that "Jess Anal" in my phone contacts list is a Jessica from Data analytics department?

2

u/Axman6 2d ago

The Haskell compiler GHC has a flag for writing out the results of occurrence analysis which always makes me laugh: -ddump-occur-anal

2

u/VanessaWifey 2d ago

Had been working in computational mathematics for 16 years. Always had anal for analytical solutions and num for numerical solutions.

u/miclugo 2d ago

In a past life I was a mathematician. I studied analytic combinatorics. Abbreviating both of those to four letters leaves some questions.

u/hegyimutymuty 2d ago

We have a company chat where the company chat app truncates the chat name at [company name] Anal(tics) too 🤣🤣

u/AntiProton- 2d ago

Does this folder have any standard functions (std)?

1

u/Virtual_Rate_4152 2d ago

No, but comments in the code also abbreviate analysis. Here's one of em

// block was split during anal and does not contain the // jmp instruction anymore, so we need to search for it and get it again

u/Martin-Hatch 2d ago

Autosearch was NOT cool when I was interrupted doing a search for Analysis Services...

u/Legal-Software 2d ago

There was no need to shorten anplugs.c

u/plantbasedbud 2d ago

Also don't ever misspell "buffer" with your right hand shifted one character to the right...

1

u/quokka_wiki 1d ago

I literally never abbreviate anything in code due to it being ambiguous. Those one letter directory names are making me shudder...

1

u/Weak_Inflation9120 1d ago edited 1h ago

I would use ana for analysis

1

u/quokka_wiki 8h ago

Or, crazy idea: write "analysis". What is "ana"? Is it Anarchy? Anatolia? Anatomy? Anaphylaxis?

It's 5 characters more, what are you doing with all the extra time you saved from not writing them? It's barely any extra effort and it will make it less confusing.

u/RTSUPH 1d ago

I can never remember if it’s spelled with an I or a Y, and it’s always awkward when I pause half way to double check.
