Back when I was a Googler, I used to play a little game where I would think of a random word and then check if there was a Google internal project code named for it. It was a bit hard finding stuff that wasn't some system or project, and often there would be multiple ones. I actually found one that I thought would be a nice name and reserved the go link for it, but naming anything after it never panned out, when I finally got to design a system from scratch my manager wanted a boring descriptive name like "consolidated data system" (it was a bit more specific but that was the vibe). Side note: I noticed that more "boring" and less sexy projects had cooler names a lot of the time, and my theory was that people were compensating for doing unsexy work. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I reserved go/poop years ago, but the ability to name a project with that name is diminishing | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Google eats their own with names. Their latest and greatest AI framewofk is Agent Development Kit (ADK). Not to be confused with the Android Development Kit... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Please no more "Project Espresso" nonsense that is entirely meaningless to anyone reading this. Pick a descriptive name. Everyone else who is not in your team will thank you. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
