mathematician here, where is the joke?
-
Variable names should be "self defining" meaning you should be able to understand what its doing from the name. The name also shouldn't be too long. Combining those together makes it difficult to come up with an "elegant" name

I think they got the joke, they were just joking about how this is common in math :P
-
The most atrocious variable names I ever encountered in code were as a research assistant for a math professor doing game theory simulations. Literally unreadable unless you had a copy of his paper on the subject to refer to

tmp3 = tmp1 + tmp2 ; T.T

in the linux community it's really common to have applications like MPD, music player daemon, or MPC, music player client, and ncmpc, ncurses music player client, and ncmpcpp the aforementioned one with ++ tacked onto the end.
Cmus, which from what i can recall is literally "c music player"
etc....

fia? fir? fib (part of fia)?

exercise left up to the developer!

This joke is funny only if placed in Arnold-Atyah manifold if Kolmogorov-Ramachandran-Yu metric is defined

So don't use it in non-KRY-definite AA situations, or you could get erroneous results. QQX is fine though, as long as you have non-vanishing ABCD. /s
I wonder if Lean proofs become the new peer review like I've heard suggested, if mathematics might break from this, and look more compsci-ish in the future. That way non-specialists could get up to speed quickly.
