I’m thinking of watching ‘Halt and Catch Fire’, but I’m also taking a hardware & OS course right now, and I was worried that it might teach me some wrong stuff. I might wait till after the final to watch it.

In Halt and Catch Fire one of the main characters uses the term “killer app” which I’m not sure is period correct for the early eighties. Always bugged the crap out of me.
It was coined in the late 80s, but as far as “affronts to tech” that is a very minor offence compared to what shows normally pull
I definitely remember hearing that term in the 90’s.
