What does IAWYC mean?
Irritatingly, this site now has its own non-standard acronym for the Internet standard “IAWTC”.
It’s clearly an in-crowd Shibboleth that’s used to recognize fellow LWer’s.
I dunno if that’s irritating or not.
“IAWYC” is short for “I agree with your conclusion”. See this post and its comment thread.
