in (trad, nobody uses it) IT German, a stack is called a "cellar", which always struck me as ridiculous: it doesn't fit what's going on at all. like, what is the commonality with a stack – is it that you can put stuff in and take it out again? absurd

(it's not even badly translated, it's an original term, patented in the 50s)

however, I do think using names that illustrate what's going on is a great idea to make things more memorable

so anyways, a doubly linked list is now a paternoster

Sometimes y’all, there is the perfect meme.
