sometimes i have to chuckle when reading headlines on here.
if someone has no IT knowledge, or maybe just doesn't know rust or fish, "Rust Port for Fish Shell" is probably undecipherable. Doesn't even sound like something related to IT.
since when do fish have shells and why is the port rusty, and why do these fish even need a port?!?
- znpy 2y agoYou can't imagine how hard i feel your words. And to add on that... I'm not a native speaker of english. Many years ago i was starting my learning journey with kubernetes, and all names had a nautical theme. I was learning about helm charts... and of course, a chart for me was something like a graph, with x and y axis, maybe some z axis... histograms, that kind of things. So the word "chart" didn't make sense when talking about release management, text files and `text/template` go code. I had to casually stumble upon the concept of nautical charts for things to start making sense... Our industry has this kind of clownish traits some times.
- cholantesh 2y agoIf it's any consolation, the Github issue title is even more baffling and it was posted to reddit (or here, can't remember) a couple of days ago. E: Here it is https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41098931 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41098931 I stared at it, clicked on it, scrolled through and remained totally confused until I noticed the repo name.
