Must know software terms | noun
what happens when developers tell you something is fixed, but it doesn't look fixed to you. Of course, they might also be lying. Caching means storing data in a temporary storage location (e.g. your browser's cache) so that, next time when it`s requested, it will load faster. This means you can efficiently reuse previously retrieved or computed data to minimize the load. Sometimes what you see is an older copy of the data, because the cache didn`t refresh. Hence the universal catchphrase “clear your cache” when something doesn't look right.
Software development - the musical Opening line: “Why oh why isn`t this fixed?! Chorus: “Clear your caaache! Clear your caaache!” *gong sounds*
