If only they would do the reader the simple, and most gracious service of defining precisely what they mean by this obscure "TPS" acronym.
...and before you downvote this comment (because I can smell your itchy little fingers all the way from the otherside of the internet), yes, I can assure you that I did actually Google for the answer. And yes, I did discern what is meant by TPS.
But that isn't the point. The point isn't that I'm a lazy slacker, and/or an ignorant yokle because I didn't already know the meaning of the abreviation innately, and feel inconvenienced by having to open another browser window, and search for some clue.
The point is that the author is assuming everyone will immediately know and understand that acronym, but meanwhile, when I conduct my search, I am forced to assume that my chosen definition is correct, wihout actually knowing for sure.
And for that reason, I'm going to leave out the meaning I've chosen as the author's intended definition for TPS. I have no way of knowing whether my assumption was accurate. So the mystery persists. What does TPS actually mean? Go search for it, you lazy, ignorant slacker.
