 CC0 is a [waiver](waiver.md) (similar to a [license](license.md)) of [copyright](copyright.md), created by [Creative Commons](creative_commons.md), that can be used to dedicate one's work to the [public domain](public_domain.md) (kind of).
 
-UPDATE: There is now a similar waiver called [WPPD](wppd.md) (*world wide public domain*, https://wpdd.info/), intended to also waive patents.
+UPDATE: There is now a similar waiver called [WPDD](wpdd.md) (*worldwide public domain dedication*, https://wpdd.info/), intended to also waive patents.
 
 Unlike a license, a waiver such as this *removes* (at least effectively) the author's copyright; by using CC0 the author willingly gives up his own copyright so that the work will no longer be owned by anyone (while a license preserves the author's copyright while granting some rights to other people). It's therefore the most [free](free_software.md) and [permissive](permissive.md) option for releasing intellectual works. CC0 is designed in a pretty sophisticated way, it also waives "neighboring rights" (e.g. [moral rights](moral_rights.md); waving these rights is why we prefer CC0 over other waivers such as [unlicense](unlicense.md)), and also contains a fallback license in case waiving copyright isn't possible in a certain country. For this CC0 is one of the best ways, if not the best, of truly and completely dedicating works to public domain world-wide (well, at least in terms of copyright). In this world of extremely fucked up [intellectual property](intellectual_property.md) laws it is not enough to state "my work is public domain" -- you need to use something like CC0 to achieve legally valid public domain status.

 - Implementing a web left-right sweeping image gallery with HTML [iframe](iframe.md) instead of some overcomplicated [JavaScript](js.md) library. { Example stolen from [reactionary software](reactionary_software.md) website. ~drummyfish }
 - Supporting only [ASCII](ascii.md) (or something like [ISO 8859-1](iso88591.md)) instead of [Unicode](unicode.md), it is [good enough](good_enough.md).
 - Using a plain text flat file instead of a [database](database.md) system.
+- In [programming](programming.md) simply using identifier prefixes instead of [namespaces](namespace.md) which require another feature to be added to the language. This is done e.g. by [SDL](sdl.md) -- all functions from the library start with `SDL`, which prevents [collisions](collision.md) with user identifiers.
 - Using [markdown](markdown.md) for creating documents, as opposed to using office programs such as [Libreoffice](libreoffice.md).
 - Using a trivial [shell](shell.md) script for compiling your programs rather than a complex build system such as [CMake](cmake.md).
 - Using [ASCII art](ascii_art.md) instead of bitmap images.
