It's definitely one of the only places on the internet where you can ask a question or insult something, and have either the creator or most renown SME pop out of nowhere to explain everything. Never seen anything quite like it in any other field of interest I have.


SME = subject matter expert?

Please spell out your abbreviations for those of us who are not familiar :)


They're talking about the most renowned execs at Sony Music Entertainment obviously..


Exec at Sony Music Entertainment here. You are correct.



I’d bet somewhere deep in the organization SME has a SME SME.


'smee!

edit: "it's me!"


Worse, at least in the government circles I work in, people pronounce "SME" as "smee." Almost like you're saying the first syllable of Smeagol. Good luck googling that.


You are not alone in this... The first time I heard "smee", I thought my ears had gone.


This is why one should watch our for TLAs ;)


Temporal logic of actions?


TLA is a TLA. Only slightly less popular are FLAs.


If by FLA you mean Macromedia Flash Files, then yes, they're less popular now!


Everyone else seems having fun with it, but yes - subject matter expert.
