What does "Aliasing" mean in Rust?

Hi,
I'm watching this video

Because I'm not native English I don't really understand what "Aliasing" means in terms of software.

I know what it means in computer graphics, but not in computer software.

Can someone explain this in easy words please? I think it is important to understand this if you want to write software in Rust successfully.

Thanks. I think this will help. My search has led me to either computer graphics or analog signals.
