I don't think anyone's going to honestly yell at you for disclaimers if you feel you need them, but I think it's safe to assume that the folks here know how to use Google and Wikipedia and are fairly smart. So long as you're not talking about something extremely esoteric relative to the sort of stuff that shows up here on a regular basis. I would feel comfortable referring to the Sieve of Eratosthenes in an offhand manner. Anyone on HN can probably look at the Wikipedia page and figure out what's going on. If I refer to Negishi coupling, on the other hand, I should probably try to explain what they are and it might be prudent to provide a disclaimer that I'm going into esoteric O-chem stuff. Cool?
