:rude: [WPI] adj. 1. (of a program) Badly written. 2. Functionally
poor, e.g., a program that is very difficult to use because of
gratuitously poor (random?) design decisions. Oppose {cuspy}.
3. Anything that manipulates a shared resource without regard for
its other users in such a way as to cause a (non-fatal) problem.
Examples: programs that change tty modes without resetting them on
exit, or windowing programs that keep forcing themselves to the top
of the window stack. Compare {all-elbows}.
