Derived from "
ninja" and "
engineering", ninjaneerning describes any
activity in which the 'ninjaneer' solves a
complicated technical problem
quickly in a way that is
inscrutable to all those around him.
The ninjaneer usually performs this task at the last possible minute and
with the upmost abandon (or at least it looks that way to any observers).
Usage example:
Programmer1: "I'm getting still 150 unresolved externals at link time!"
Programmer2: "Try linking to the static c library, if that doesn't work
I'll just have to ninjaneer it before deadline."
