Disambiguation
Sep 7 2007, 7:49 PM EDT
Verb: to Dis-ambiguate. Computer Science term. Related to term "uniquify" (to make unique.) Often design problems in software require disambiguation. The motto of my company, Abstract Engineering is "Providing excellence in dis-ambiguation since a really long time ago". This is partly in jest but dis-ambiguation is truly my life's work. Contemporary software essentially tolerates no ambiguity (people on the other hand live in a world chock full of it.) Making software the people can use is largely a dis-ambiguation problem. Do you find this valuable?
