The first link in the article [1], to a blogpost about the etymology of the definition of "shard" that we now think of as the primary meaning of the word, is super interesting. The release of Ultima Online doesn't really seem too close to any inflection point of the word on Google Ngram, but I'm not sure exactly how close we should expect it to be to 1980 or 2000. 1. https://www.raphkoster.com/2009/01/08/database-sharding-came... |
