    It makes more sense when we assume it’s software development terminology instead. Alpha means the software is immature and full of issues.

    I am a release candidate male.

      Hello ladies, I’m legacy code nobody wants to refactor and is being slowly converted into microservices.

      I’m just a beta male… they doubt I’m ready for release… but I’m far more stable than any alpha male.

        What’s the difference between beta and release candidate?

        EA doesn’t know either.

      I too am a release candidate, but my marketing sucks.

      I am a minimum viable product male

      I’m barely a proof of concept then. Or minimum viable product. 🙃

      I’m an old version male. I’m out of date but stable and used by people who generally know what they’re doing and don’t want something new that’ll likely blow up in their face.

      Well, I am a god damn mess as a person. So I’m like pre-alpha. I guess that makes me a proof of concept, or maybe even a thought exercise.

      I think of myself as code-complete but not necessarily bug-free.

      I think I might be a vertical slice…
