instead of "source code" or in many cases just "code" i want to use the term "recipe" (or whatever it is in the language being used).

To me, it always has been source code, and always will be source code, but I guess if you want to be hip, it's currently solution.
I may be wrong.
To me changing 'source code' to 'solution', is about as smart as changing 'cycles per second' to hertz.

i thought "solution" was when it solves a problem. oh wait, that explains "solution looking for a problem".

Output:
manager: the solution to our problem is Windows
me:      was Windows created with our problem in mind?  did our problem exist before Windows was created?
manager: no, no
me:      then how can it be the solution to our problem?  isn't Windows just a solution looking for a problem?

i think i'd still rather refer to the actual text that describes to the machine, what to do for a particular purpose as a "recipe'. but i can't think of what to use for the verb "to code".
