Sorry if this is a little off topic, but what is it with devs and naming projects Caffeine?

Am I the only person who rolls their eyes when I see another Caffeine / Coffee named project?




I wish devs would stop naming EVERYTHING after common english words; it makes stuff 10 times harder to troubleshoot unless you already rank high on the search results.

I guess HN would be the best place to bring this up in a psa topic but I doubt it'll have any long-term influence...


Imagine if Gosling had gone with Oak, there are so many more trees to work with.

Of course Indonesian islands were the other possibility...
