Before these two comments, I would have assumed most people know before clicking that it's an acronym that derives humor from the contrast between "smart" and "stupid". Maybe periods would help?
- jeremy_wiebe 3y agoFWIW: My hunch when I read the title was that it would be about “overly smart” programmers who tended to write code that was too dense/tricky to be maintainable by anyone but themselves. Hence smart programmers writing “stupid” (aka unmaintainable/inscrutable) code.
- chrismarlow9 3y agoMaybe. I don't feel strange for assigning the precedence of a word over an acronym at 6 letters when the context comes into play.
