Sysadmin mnemonics

[kuingul]

Hi guys,

 

I am wondering if anybody uses any kind of mnemonic rules in everyday sysadmin job or in related fields? Let's share the knowledge!

 

PS Not sure if it's the write branch to ask a question like that, so please move it if necessary

Probably just PEBCAK... There's the one about sausages (?) for the OSI layer, but I can never remember it. (oh, the irony!)

I have a few 'joke' ones memorised from a long time ago tho...

PCMCIA - People Can't Memorise Computer Industry Acronyms

MACINTOSH - Most Applications Crash. If Not, The Operating System Hangs

OS/2 - Half the Operating System
