GM Nostr! ☀️ Anyone into naming?
A name can look decorative to a programmer while carrying an entire relationship for the person using it.
Words matter more than most people realize.
“Member,” “customer,” “user,” and “beneficiary” are not automatically interchangeable.
Codetry tests what changes when one replaces another, and how we can help the end user name their software so it doesn’t drift underneath them.
What word in your project carries more responsibility than its schema suggests?
