I am certainly not trying to be a jerk. I am sure you think otherwise and that is fine. I posted the meaning because as an older person the meaning as I learned it was never applied to software and your post struck me as odd.

Since you seem to take delight in pointing out other's stupidity or confusion of late I posted the meaning as I knew it to be.

Think what you want as I do......
