marbles: pl.n. [from mainstream “lost all his/her marbles”] The
minimum needed to build your way further up some hierarchy of tools or
abstractions. After a bad system crash, you need to determine if the
machine has enough marbles to come up on its own, or enough marbles to
allow a rebuild from backups, or if you need to rebuild from scratch.
“This compiler doesn't even have enough marbles to compile
hello world.”
