That one and Chef (https://docs.chef.io/cookbooks/ - cookbooks, recipes). It's a bad idea to abuse naming like that.

Their usage of cookbooks and recipes is actually fine. Kitchen can be confusing sometimes but generally still fine... Knife is the most confusing of all. But what I really hate about Chef terms is they make searching with DDG really difficult.

Let's talk about the elephant in the room: Ruby with its gems and poetry.

How are you even supposed to know what Nokogiri is about ?

I haven't even thought of rubygems and I deal with them every day. I'm curious now - they don't seem like a comparable issue for some reasons. Maybe because it's just one level? The language is Ruby which is arbitrary and the packages are gems which is connected in naming, but there's nothing more in language itself, right?
