What is this tendency of naming so many programming languages with some already relatively common words, why isn't there proper search engine optimization going on? I can kinda excuse pre-internet ones, but new ones? Just why are people making lives hard for others...
- causal 3y agoYup. Even if the authors are totally naive to the negative association, this name renders it simply unusable to many organizations. Simply Googling the name on a work computer could land some people in hot water.
- dumbo-octopus 3y agoIt is very likely the case that the author does not particularly care about what happens to people who google the name on their work computers. They are probably firing any customers that expect a dependable system from their hobby project.
- valenterry 3y agoYeah I dislike that too. Very annoying. Not as bad as "go" but still, come on, at least change the name a little bit to make it unique but keep the reference you want to use.
