The Fine Article. Like RTFM, Read The Fine Manual, or more often a slight variant.
the fucking article
I would note that TFA has slightly ameliorated; it wasn't intended to sound mean as "the fucking article" suggests. It's commonly used to just mean "the article", with the swear word sort of disappearing. I hope I didn't cause offense; I just didn't want consider it.
Most likely derived from the developer phrase "RTFM" (read the fucking manual)
I always thought it was "the featured article"
That is cute. Like a story I heard about a kid that thought WTF stood for "Wow, that's funny".
I'm surprised this thread is on HN, and it actually gives me hope.
