Names don't have any such requirements - but we should use them correctly. You don't rename Windows even though it's not a hole in the wall stuffed with glass.

- dheera 5y agoIt's just irksome. I don't think Windows is a good analogy. More like if I called the OS "Windows.jpg". If you're going to use something that looks like a filename as a product name, then make sure that file actually exists and is in the expected format. D3.js --> good Angular.js --> good Node.js --> bad python3.py --> bad Windows.jpg --> bad Windows.exe --> okay (I don't use windows but I assume there's something of the sort)
- emteycz 5y agoI agree it's not a great name - but IMHO using names incorrectly is even worse than bad naming.
- codingdave 5y agoIf you are going to get this pedantic, then why not also include *.com as bad, because that was a file type in DOS.
