Gamete \Gam"ete\ (g[a^]m"[=e]t; g[.a]*m[=e]t"; the latter
   usually in compounds), n. [Gr. gameth` wife, or game`ths
   husband, fr. gamei^n to marry.] (Biol.)
   A sexual cell or germ cell having a single set of unpaired
   chromosomes; a conjugating cell which unites with another of
   like or unlike character to form a new individual. In Bot.,
   gamete designates esp. the similar sex cells of the lower
   thallophytes which unite by conjugation, forming a zygospore.
   The gametes of higher plants are of two sorts, sperm (male)
   and egg (female); their union is called fertilization, and
   the resulting zygote an oospore. In Zool., gamete is most
   commonly used of the sexual cells of certain Protozoa, though
   also extended to the germ cells of higher forms.

The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003):

egg
 n.

    The binary code that is the payload for buffer overflow and format string
    attacks. Typically, an egg written in assembly and designed to enable
    remote access or escalate privileges from an ordinary user account to
    administrator level when it hatches. Also known as shellcode.

    The name comes from a particular buffer-overflow exploit that was
    co-written by a cracker named eggplant. The variable name ?egg? was used to
    store the payload. The usage spread from people who saw and analyzed the
    code.


Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary:

Egg
   (Heb. beytsah, "whiteness"). Eggs deserted (Isa. 10:14), of a
   bird (Deut. 22:6), an ostrich (Job 39:14), the cockatrice (Isa.
   59:5). In Luke 11:12, an egg is contrasted with a scorpion,
   which is said to be very like an egg in its appearance, so much
   so as to be with difficulty at times distinguished from it. In
   Job 6:6 ("the white of an egg") the word for egg (hallamuth')
   occurs nowhere else. It has been translated "purslain" (R.V.
   marg.), and the whole phrase "purslain-broth", i.e., broth made
   of that herb, proverbial for its insipidity; and hence an
   insipid discourse. Job applies this expression to the speech of
   Eliphaz as being insipid and dull. But the common rendering,
   "the white of an egg", may be satisfactorily maintained.
