brute force and ignorance: n. A popular design technique at many software houses —
brute force coding unrelieved by any knowledge of
how problems have been previously solved in elegant ways. Dogmatic
adherence to design methodologies tends to encourage this sort of thing.
Characteristic of early larval stage programming;
unfortunately, many never outgrow it. Often abbreviated BFI: “Gak,
they used a bubble sort! That's strictly from
BFI.” Compare bogosity. A very similar usage
is said to be mainstream in Great Britain.
