Pointer dereference is "at", since that's a reasonable shortening of "asterisk", and also accurate semantically.
Everything else, I think, I just do in (what I'd expect is) the normal or obvious way. There's also alot that I don't bother to subvocalise at all, now that I think about it, like subscripts in math for most people. Array subscripts in programming, would be one such thing, at least for me.
I asked, because I would keep saying (li) is lee. and my teacher was like what? So I felt little awkward, but believe me i can never pronounce it like ... eel iee. like my teacher did. So I asked everyone just uses 'standard' pronunciation or just 'hacked' like me. For me it's easier to remember.
damn speaking of wordpress (WP) i am a really awkward kid in the class because I always pronounce vp i.e vp super cache.
Most people probably have their own private words; it's hard to know what the "standard" pronounciations are if you're just reading text.
Another one I've thought of is that I always say url, not U.R.L. - didn't know you weren't "supposed" to. It's not as stupid-sounding as you might think: I'm not saying "Earl" all the time; it's more like the vowel in "her" than the vowel in "hair". That phonetic merger doesn't exist round here.
