    I remember a time when almost every category of tool had something named “Yet Another [Thing]” because there were already so many options to choose from when they decided to make their own.

      Yeah, like YAML, which’s name originally meant "Yet Another Markup Language*.

      Then they redubbed it to mean “YAML Ain’t Markup Language”, because well, it isn’t actually a markup language. 🫠

      Well it kind of stands for nothing, because at the center of this onion is GNU, which is recursive. It stands for “GNU’s Not UNIX”, so the G in GNU stands for GNU.

        That is why large companies don’t want you to find where it is. The application of proprietary condoms to GNU licensed body parts would taint them with gpl license.

    As a former Windows user, it still is taking a long time to wrap my head around all this new terminology, functions, and systems.

    This doesn’t help. XD
