minus-squareLaurel Raven@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·1 年前This is the first time I’ve ever even heard of these kinds of abbreviations, what the hell even are they?
minus-squarecloud_herder@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13arrow-down1·1 年前They’re shorthand for long words you don’t want to type. You keep the first and last letter and replace the rest of the word with the number of characters you removed. Kubernetes ➡️ K8s Observability ➡️ O11y 🤷🏼♂️
minus-squareNithanimlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·1 年前And I thought that “8” had something to do with “netes” because it somewhat resembles the pronunciation 🤦♂️
minus-squareIthi@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·1 年前Yeah this is my first time learning this too and k8s is something that comes up almost daily for me. I18n is the only one that clues in for me (internationalization).
minus-squareNithanimlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 年前Man, I always found that weird but never looked it up…
minus-squarecloud_herder@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 年前I think I’d still rather type out internationalization even if it doesn’t fit on a slide lol.
minus-squarenilloc@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 年前Was it a file system workaround, or character limit in some older programming language?
minus-squarebarsquid@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 年前My favorite is k3s. Named so that it is the same as k8s, but smaller.
minus-squarecloud_herder@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 年前I thought the same until the barbarians came @me with O11y and one of my coworkers asked where the f they got “oh eleveny” from. I just thought 8 = netes.
