One of my favorite things about diving deep into a new industry is discovering the jargon. A good set of terms can do wonders for allowing effective communication about complicated topics. Of course there are countless examples of acronym craziness, words with cool etymologies (“dray” comes from Old Norse for drag) and many cases where new meanings come from existing nouns that get verbed, like “productionalize”.
