Yeah, the narrowing of the word "algorithm" to only mean "social media recommendation algorithms" is getting on my nerves.

It’s the only time normies encounter the word.

How do you feel about crypto?

[-] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Cryptography is pretty useful

At this point, "crypto" is its own word short for "cryptocurrency", and not for "cryptography" in the broader sense. It's unfortunate, but that's how people use it.

That isn't even generally true. Try mentioning crypto on the LKML and see what they think you mean.

I've always thought it was so funny when people say tHe aLgOrItHM like it's a bad word or something. I know they mean social media & marketing, but it's funny to think that they're very concerned about something like bubble sort.
