So me and a few of my buddies at work were talking about hosting in Azure, and found we pronounced it differently (though I think there technically is a correct pronunciation). It got us to talking about other common phrases, so I'm curious how you guys pronounce or say each of these:
Azure
# (what do you call it?)
Ubuntu
SQL
Apache
GIF (the age-old debate)
If you can think of any others that differ, feel free to post them!
