isaiah@lemmy.worldtoExperienced Devs@programming.dev•How much does naming consistency matter?
6·
1 year agoI think I’ve learned to get less attached to opinionated terminology in code and database design because I see it happen all the time where the usage of the value/field/thing can evolve naturally over time as the business needs evolve. And refactoring field names (as an example) from UI to database is often a painful exercise, not without significant regression risks. (Depending on the size and complexity of your systems, of course)
So while I totally agree with you and others that ideally naming would be consistent throughout, my real world experience with the issue has taught me that this isn’t the hill I die on.
My 2 cents from 10 years experience in the industry.
That’s honor system, for sure. OpenAI has promised that their bots will honor this line in robots.txt. But unless these companies have implemented some detect-and-block method on their own, there is nothing physically stopping the bots from gathering data anyway.
