Normal person: ¬(Garbage | Trash) = okay to put here if it is not garbage and not trash
Computer programmers: ¬ Garbage | Trash = okay to put here if it is not garbage or it is trash, but since garbage and trash are the same thing and ¬P | P = 1, it’s okay to put anything here
Historically, ‘garbage’ was specifically food waste, what we now would call ‘kitchen scraps’ or ‘compost’ if you live somewhere with a municipal composting program, or compost yourself. (Historically, ‘compost’ generally referred to the finished compost, rather than also the waste going in.) ‘Trash’ was other non-compostable refuse.
TL;DR Trash goes to the dump, garbage goes to the pig pen or compost bin
