I find it hard to name servers. Cute names are unhelpful, but digiocean-amsterdam-5 is a mouthful.

I hear people say that Go is often hard to search online (hence sometimes "Golang"), but the vast majority of language names are common words. Names with punctuation (C++, C#) are hard too.
Is this a big problem in practice? "Perl" isn't a dictionary word, but it's an exception.
`init` feels like an unhelpful name in OO. It doesn't give you an initial value, it initialises the instance that has already been created. Developers are often surprised that init doesn't return the instance, because they have a strong association with `new Foo()`.
Perhaps `finish` would have been a less confusing name?
I think you could build an interesting IDE with a tiny embedded LLM in addition to the usual tooling.
Features like 'extract method' would be much nicer if an LLM could provide a name. Choosing a good name is virtually impossible from just a typed AST.
