Ask HN: Where does Intel's processor naming convention come from?
Why is everything "$ADJECTIVE Lake"? And do the individual adjectives mean anything or are they fully random? I couldn't find anything online.
You’ll find most of them in here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_codenames https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_codenames
Many Intel codenames are real geographical features near the site where the chip was designed (often Beaverton, OR or Haifa, Israel).
