Re: Pronunciation of tuple

The term "tuple" appears a fair bit in programming but its pronunciation
is a source of some controversy.

  There's low-key more backing for the [uː] you think is right.

  I've heard folks say it (in vids) with both [uː] and [ʌ].

  Word pronunciations can be hella irregular, with exceptions like the
  "u" in "busy," "business," and "bury." So, the "u" in "tuple" might
  be a gnarly exception too.

  (Another similar debate is how to say "router.")
