When product names aren't properly workshopped:

> I’m founder and CEO of a company called DoltHub. We’re a fifteen person startup that spent the last eight years building Dolt...

"dolt" is a synonym for "idiot".

Noting that "git" was an obscure term in US English before Linus popularized it. "dolt" is already in most native English speakers' vocabularies.

It wasn't that obscure in the US before Linus used it, although perhaps its use was regional? I certainly heard it frequently. "git" still means "asshole" in my mind first, and I have to recontextualize that default every time to think of in terms of the version control system.

I have the same problem with "POS". Every time I see of hear that, "point of sale" isn't the thing that pops into my mind first.
