@ferret what are those words?
@Satsuma I could just hack a word using quasi. Or I learned that the word "fere" in latin means closely/quite. So I could use ferevisible, ferelocatable, fereidentifiable
@vaporeon_ it would better to say "usually identifiable" or "usually locatable"
let's say, to describe an picture of a face taken for facial recognition software. the software will very likely correctly identify somebody from a clear image of their face, but not always
@Satsuma I am trying to invent taxonomy so a snappy name is better
@vaporeon_ @onfy @The_T @monorail @Kirito i cannot believe ive never heard of this guy what the fuck
@vaporeon_ I know you speak other languages, is there a word in some language you know of that has this meaning?
@aescling @vaporeon_ that is why I put it in quotes. unfortunately people actually say things like this
@vaporeon_ language evolves over time. at the time C was released it was a high level language, and writing in assembly would have been considered writing in a low level language. nowadays it is extraordinarily rare to write things explicitly in assembly--most programmers who work "directly with the hardware" use languages like C, C++, Rust, etc. So the meaning of low-level has changed to refer to usage of languages like those mentioned.

@packetcat I'm very sorry but I originally read "romantasy" as "romantussy" and now you have to have that in your head too
