I couldn't understand why it was called 'fractal' until I did a Google image search. It really should be called "arc-burning", but I guess that term was already taken.

(software) should be renamed to either GIM (GNU Image Manipulator) or the full acronym GNUIMP.

can someone tell me why qemu-system-i386 has the part 386 in its name?

root@karotte:~# qemu-system-i386 -machine pc -cpu 386 -boot d -cdrom /remote/data/retro/FD13LIVE.iso -m 512
qemu-system-i386: unable to find CPU model '386'

no 386!

root@karotte:~# qemu-system-i386 -machine pc -cpu 486 -boot d -cdrom /remote/data/retro/FD13LIVE.iso -m 512

hmm 486 works...

🤷

Bon, maintenant que j'ai le cerveau bien cramé et que mon code compile, reste le plus dur :

renommé les éléments qui n'ont plus le bon nom ><'

quelqu'un a un nom pour regrouper des State et des Dto ?

je colle ma PR parceque je suis content de moi :

Götternamen sind (erstmal) gefunden. Aber irgendwie alles will einen Namen haben. Dieses ist schon sehr detailliert, ohne groß detailliert zu sein.

Don't overthink it rules on naming #642:

If the system has arbitrary parts or constraints, use arbitrary names.

GIraffeControlCenter

walrus_memory_den

(in my rhetorical system there is nothing animal related)

Your taxonomy is usually organized by functionality, but if that is not clear, then another reasonable way to organize is by "characters in a play". And it's easier to remember characters with remarkable names.

I still can’t believe how they named a program for preventing traffic deaths “Vision Zero.” It sounds like vision = zero, as in “no vision.”

I think I get that zero is referring to the goal of bringing the number to zero, but come on!

There are words.
Some words are longer than others.
Many words are longer than 4 characters.
People understand words.
People don't understand characters.
It's ok to have things named with words.
Please, use words.

A C, C++ **nomenclature question**: ♻️ 🙏

If the data a C++ reference refers to is a "referent", what is the data a C, C++ pointer points to?

- Pointee?
- Pointed?

Both Pointee and Pointed sound OK, but Pointee sounds a tad bit better (like Appointee, though I haven't heard of Appointer).

Die Open-Source-Webanwendung @monica bezeichnet sich selbst als PRM (Personal Relationship Manager). Monica ermöglicht es den Nutzern, alles Wichtige über Freunde und Familie zu erfassen und zu verwalten.

Nun haben die Entwickler eine komplette Neuinterpretation der Software als Beta veröffentlicht. Codename Chandler.

monicahq.com/blog/chandler-is-

Der Name ist auf jeden Fall eine nette Anspielung auf die Sitcom Friends. 😊

Be Careful Using ‘Menu’: adrianroselli.com/2023/05/be-c
Help better communicate accessibility with your developers by properly naming your components. I wasn’t aware the navigation with multiple levels at the top of a page is called “fly out” navigation, so, yeah, now I do! by @aardrian
