> The website is named 'defcon', like the famous defense conference.

Both the defense conference and this are references to the military term DEFCON, that stands for "defense readiness condition". Q here is referring to the Q programming language that is built on top of KDB's K language.

The website is a blog and learning resource for the Q language.

If your site requires people to explain your thought process, your presentation has failed, unless your goal is to confuse as many visitors as possible, in which case I wouldn't change a thing.
