| 2. | | weenie - Among hackers, when used with a qualifier (for example, as
in Unix weenie, VMS weenie, IBM weenie) this can be
either an insult or a term of praise, depending on context,
tone of voice, and whether or not it is applied by a person
who considers him or herself to be the same sort of weenie.
It implies that the weenie has put a major investment of time,
effort and concentration into the area indicated; whether this
is good or bad depends on the hearer's judgment of how the
speaker feels about that area. See also bigot. | |
