Dear fellow technologists:
"Cache," as in an area of memory or storage where data is held for quick access, is pronounced like "cash," as in money.
It is NOT pronounced "ca-SHAY." That word, spelled "cachet," means 'prestige.'
You're knowledge workers. Please add this to your knowledge base, so you sound knowledgeable.
Thank you!
Dear callers to the Dave Ramsey Show:
Learn the difference between the pronouns "I" and "me" and how to use them correctly, at least in the most simple an common constructions. Maybe if you spoke like you paid attention in grammar school, you'd do better in join interviews, and command a higher salary, and you'd be in better financial shape.
Worth a try.
Thanks!

Good luck with that! I feel your pain, though I've almost given up on expecting correct personal pronoun usage. But seriously, there are IT folks who use ka-SHAY for 'cache'? That's just awful!
