Mine is OOO for Out Of Office. I always misread it in my head like a ghost and it takes me a few seconds to process. It also doesn’t translate to speech—you have to say the whole thing.
Interested to see if others have similar acronyms they beef with.
You say G-U-I? I’m sorry but I’m on the gooey side on this argument. G-U-I takes too long and sounds weird.
i agree. i am a recent gooey-convert. same with TUI (terminal ui), but not UI.
I’ve never had to say TUI. I usually just say “termainal” or “command line”. UI depends on the context, sometimes “u-i” sometimes “user interface”
a TUI is usually more interactive, such as Vim, and basically a full GUI, but rendered as text.
‘command line interface’ (CLI) typically means you type out commands and thats it, such as a Bash program or Git or something.
