That name almost made me not click on the link...
- gyepi 13y agoIt's hard to come up with good names for software projects. I agree, some are silly, but goatee seems pretty OK. I have an unreleased template system, also written in Go, named goatee. I choose it because I thought it was a nice riff on moustache.
- almosnow 13y agoYeah it's cool, just reminded me of goatse
- TeMPOraL 13y agoEnglish is not my first language, so it might be because of that, but... I can't see any connection between "goatee" and "moustache", neither in spelling nor pronunciation. With "goatse", on the other hand...
- sprobertson 13y ago(The connection there is that mustache is an existing templating system, and goatee is another kind of facial hair)
- dec0dedab0de 13y agoI can't see any connection between "goatee" and "moustache" A goatee is a style of facial hair.
- TeMPOraL 13y agoAh, ok, now I got it, thanks :).
- TeMPOraL 13y agoFor me, it made this link stand out. I was thinking "am I so tired, or did Goatse-inspired something just got to the frontpage of HN?". With dogecoins being all the craze this days, I wouldn't even be much surprised...
