Terrible new name though. Outcaste manages to both combine the negative associations of being a reject and the Indian caste system, and permanently remind users of the project's troubled history.
- kadoban 5y agoI would imagine that if it goes anywhere they'll rename when they have some time?
- metadat 5y agoIs it really that bad? *cough* CockroachLabs / CockroachDB *cough*
- 2StepsOutOfLine 5y agoAlso, the company behind Traefik. Containous. It doesn't sound bad in your head, but then you say it out loud. (Yes even the CEO pronounces it that way in videos too)
- Operyl 5y agoI like that name, cockroaches are difficult to kill ;)
- nikolay 5y agoActually, they are not that hard to kill if you know them well.
- lriuui0x0 5y agoCockroaches or CockroachDB?
- nikolay 5y agoI guess, both. Cockroaches are not so smart in the end, in fact, they often become victims of their powerful drives, which can be exploited for their own demise. I'm sure knowing the architect and behavior of the DB can be exploited in a similar way! I'm joking, of course.
