Rust Is Named After A Fungus And Python Is Named After A Comedy Group

MY ENTIRE PROGRAMMING LIFE HAS BEEN A LIE! 😱 Here I am thinking Rust is named after that horrifying orange corrosion that eats metal alive, with its edgy "memory safety" branding, but NOOOO—it's named after some obscure fungus?! And Python?! I spent YEARS believing it was named after those terrifying reptiles that squeeze the life out of their prey (just like Python code squeezes the life out of my CPU), but it's actually named after Monty Python?! The comedy group?! What's next? Is JavaScript actually named after someone's pet goldfish named "Java" who liked to follow "scripts" of swimming patterns?! I CAN'T EVEN TRUST PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE NAMES ANYMORE! 💀

The Golang Identity Crisis

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute MELTDOWN happening here is what I live for! 💅 This poor soul is having an existential crisis because people keep saying "Golang" instead of just "Go" and I am LIVING for this level of rage! The tea is SCALDING hot: Go was named "Go" - short, sweet, impossible to Google. But nooooo, people had to start calling it "Golang" because otherwise you'd be searching for a VERB instead of a programming language. The AUDACITY! And now this person is threatening to rename everything! "Rustlang"! "TypeScriptyMcTypeFace.io"! The DRAMA! The THEATRICS! All because some developers can't stick to the official two-letter name that's basically unsearchable online! I'm framing this rant and hanging it on my wall. Peak developer frustration caught in the wild! *chef's kiss*
