I'm sure the ship has sailed on Carbon's naming convention, but darn if that isn't a confusing article-title.

It is interesting to contemplate the most-ambiguous and least-comprehensible/googleable name one might be able to give to a piece of software. "the"? "Biden"? "Russia"? "water"? "air"? "dog"? "person"? "!"? "?"? " "?

Google engineers: "Let's make our languages hard to Google!"

Swift was annoying in the early days since searches would bring up info on the international payment system.

Lua and PHP have nice searchability. At least, it's fairly easy to weed out results on the Portuguese moon and the Philippine peso.

I remember trying to Lycos/Altavista/Yahoo info on C or C++ back in the 90s. Perl also ended up being a challenge because a lot of results would be things like http://example.com/cgi-bin/perl/irrelevant-result.

I've been a Dart developer for three years and had zero issues finding anything Dart related.

I also had to write some Go, that was actually pretty bad in terms of searchability.

For me it has helped to write it as "golang"; usually Google seems to understand what I want and show me relevant results.

Now, but in the early days a Dart search was likely to bring up info about the Irish transportation system
