    I’m a dev. I develop little prototypes and things with Rust. I often create a new repository and don’t give the project a name, until I’ve coded enough of it that I know where it’s going.

    A few years back, the makers of the programming language Rust started punishing people for prepending rust- before the names of their tools and apps. They recommended that people append -rs to the end.

    The combination of these two things caused me to end up with a whole bunch of repositories named something like cli-rs or clitool-rs, both of which I’d just pronounce as clitoris.
