I used to run a dual stack app, windows was Roman mythology, linux was Greek, that allowed us to keep roles straight across environments - apollo/hermes, athena/minerva, etc.
- DmitriRavinoff 12y agoYou...do know that Apollo and Hermes are two entirely different entities, right? Hermes is the counterpart of the Roman Mercury. Apollo has the same names in both pantheons.
- couradical 12y agoYeah, I remembered that wasn't the right pairing after I wrote that (and thankfully ours weren't paired like that, we had the right names); but that also goes to show you the downside of that particular naming scheme - it requires additional knowledge in a specific domain.
