2. The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) |
Real World
n.
1. Those institutions at which ?programming? may be used in the same
sentence as ?FORTRAN?, ?COBOL?, ?RPG?, ?IBM?, ?DBASE?, etc. Places
where programs do such commercially necessary but intellectually
uninspiring things as generating payroll checks and invoices.
2. The location of non-programmers and activities not related to
programming.
3. A bizarre dimension in which the standard dress is shirt and tie and in
which a person's working hours are defined as 9 to 5 (see code grinder).
4. Anywhere outside a university. ?Poor fellow, he's left MIT and gone into
the Real World.? Used pejoratively by those not in residence there. In
conversation, talking of someone who has entered the Real World is not
unlike speaking of a deceased person. It is also noteworthy that on the
campus of Cambridge University in England, there is a gaily-painted
lamp-post which bears the label ?REALITY CHECKPOINT?. It marks the boundary
between university and the Real World; check your notions of reality before
passing. This joke is funnier because the Cambridge ?campus? is actually
coextensive with the center of Cambridge town. See also fear and loathing
, mundane, and uninteresting.
