God do I hate teams and systems with cute names. It's all cute and fun until you're the one from another team who needs to integrate with you and decode what Pikachu and Tyrion are responsible for, and discover that Fassbender is just a nickname for a Postgresdb maintained by the "It's over 9000" team. AuthService, CacheService, Db and EntrypointTeam are perfectly fine names. I don't care that namespaces are still aligned with 4 names ago, as long as I can somewhat infer what things do based on their names

The upside of having cutesy team names and mascots is that nowadays people just throw something into an AI image generator prompt, and you get a mascot that has clearly been trained on furry fetish art, and during Zoom meetings you get to look around and see who else is trying to stifle laughter when their slide comes up on a presentation.

How much I hate cute sprint names. How is "sweet summer breeze" better than 2023-03? At least I know if it's current or five years old
