The funny thing is, the English words like "slice" and "stream" make
more sense in Swedish in a technical context because they are detached
from their actual meanings. That is not the case for most English
speakers because they can't help but think of a slice of bread, pizza,
cake, etc., at least initially. :)

I am not alone with my cakes ! :-)
