Lightning Talks - What's in a name?
summary
Developers spend roughly 70–90% of their time reading code yet naming gets under 1% of beginner texts and only ~4–5% in style guides; a literal class called correlation computed call values spawns confusing variants across a codebase. Practical fixes that worked: use a thesaurus to find distinct terms, run short brainstorming sessions with teammates, prefer clear names like demo data client over ambiguous ones, and rely on cheap refactoring to rename confusing identifiers.
