I can go on all day 😂

@creator for "OOP vs. functional"

@thedevdevil lmfao 😂

Coffee vs more coffee.

FLOSS vs Proprietary

HD DVD vs blu ray

Qwerty vs Dvorak

Gif Vs "Jif" is not a war anymore.

The creator of the word said it's "Jif" :P

@santartine what's covfefe ?

Grunt vs gulp

The Dragon Reborn vs Shiatan

Crusades 1 through 4

Trump vs World

SQL vs 'sequel'

Spam vs actual rants

@Greggergalactic haha 😂

I've another:

Theresa May vs Encryption (UK currently but will impact the world eventually)

@Tobio creators can be wrong. Gif is not Jiff. Same with LaTeX... It's not Latech. And Sean Bean is just called Seen Been.

Wars:
light vs dark theme
unit vs functional tests
querying specifics vs caching generics
feature productivity vs code quality
comments vs "sentence methods"
readability vs performance
framework magic vs language correctness

And of course Trump vs sanity.

Linux
Chrome
None of these (Jetbrains)
GIF

@module I said that 😉

@Tobio lol. It's still a war

@bittersweet I'm sorry but that is totally untrue.

The creator of a word can't be wrong. Also because the word he invented doesn't have to follow English rules.

For example, in Italian is perfectly "Jif".

And he said it.

So it's over. It's "Jif"

@corscheid ahah I answered. This war has to be stopped.

@Tobio I pronounce gif with a Dutch G so I'm wrong anyway.

But I dislike the trend where creators of products feel like they can also create new pronunciations. "Yeah the name of our product is Fart, but you pronounce it as Forte, like French for strong".

If you misspell your brandname, or make it ambiguous, I'm going to mispronounce it. On purpose.

@bittersweet the fault in your reasoning is that you actually don't know where the word comes from. So you can't know how it will be pronounced.

But, hey, it's only a "Jif" 😆

@Tobio I do know the origin of the word. It's Jaffics Interchange Format, JIF.
