Term of the Day

Each day a glossary term is automatically selected and shown on the homepage. The pick is deterministic — the pool of 161 terms with descriptions is shuffled once per year using the year as a seed, then terms are assigned to days in order. Every term appears 2–3 times per year, and the order changes each year.
