The irony of programming language names is just *chef's kiss*. Python isn't named after an actual snake but a comedy group (Monty Python). Rust isn't named after iron oxide but the fungus. Java isn't named after an island but coffee. And JavaScript? That was just marketing trying to piggyback on Java's popularity despite having about as much in common as a submarine and a sandwich. Naming things is supposedly one of the two hardest problems in computer science, and somehow we've managed to make it even more confusing. Next time someone asks me to name a new microservice, I'm calling it "FileProcessor" just to watch everyone's heads explode from the shocking clarity.
