/ mooo... This is the Jargon of the day: \ | |
| infinite /adj./ Consisting of a large | | |
| number of objects; extreme. Used very | | |
| loosely as in: "This program produces | | |
| infinite garbage." "He is an infinite | | |
| loser." The word most likely to follow | | |
| `infinite', though, is hair. (It has | | |
| been pointed out that fractals are an | | |
| excellent example of infinite hair.) | | |
| These uses are abuses of the word's | | |
| mathematical meaning. The term | | |
| `semi-infinite', denoting an | | |
| immoderately large amount of some | | |
| resource, is also heard. "This compiler | | |
| is taking a semi-infinite amount of | | |
| time to optimize my program." See also | | |
\ semi. / | |
