Tiny naming woes
“There are only two hard things in computer science: cache invalidation and naming things.” – Phil Karlton
The word “studio” sounds like a pretentious name for that section of my website. I’m not an artist or an architect—why should I get to call it that?
But look, there are so many other options that didn’t work:
| name | risks conflation with |
|---|---|
| Workshop | Topic-focused academic gatherings |
| Lab | A group of people working on research together |
| Projects | Research topics that span multiple papers |
| Experiments | Small focused scientific tests |
Anyway.
