no, it's called a "search result"

  We have C, a language named after a letter, and Go, a language named after a verb, and your issue is with "Kernel"? Just fucking add fucking "programming language" as the suffix to your fucking query about Kernel the PL, to mimic the tone of the original comment.

    C, which was named before search engines were a thing, and Go, which is also a terrible name, but google is big enough they can make it work. Also, it's not like things like the linux kernel have a specific enough dialect of C it could be considered a programming dialect/language itself, so there are multiple layers of poor naming here. The point is if you want people to use your esoteric programming language, you want to minimize any blatantly obvious pain points. Choosing a decent name is a very easy pain point to avoid.

    Searching for “kernel programming language” mostly turns up a bunch of results about what programming languages are good for kernel programming. Adding words doesn’t always disambiguate. I mean, it doesn’t turn up any results about corn, so I guess that’s something, but beyond that it doesn’t seem terribly helpful.
