- sejje 13y agoI've co-founded with my brother and I just didn't use technical lingo. When I did, it was because it would get used constantly and I just explained it one time. I have a pretty good way of explaining tech to non-techies.

I'll use something like "modus operandi" or whatever and get blank stares from people. Actually, a recent one I remember using that got blank stares was just "cryptography". That was actually awesome because I knew the etymology off the top of my head, so teaching that one was fun.
