How the SQLite virtual machine works

Such ambigious names remind of “Rust”. It’s such an um-actually name (um actually it’s not first and foremost about oxidization it’s about fungi…)

Um, actually this[1] suggests that it originally wasn't about anything other than seeming like a good name and that any deeper explanation that has been given was made up. Of course, by the same token, "it seemed like a good name" could have also been made up. But it appears that the team eventually embraced it in the oxidization[2] sense.

Um actually I believe more in community consensus with regards to naming provenance as opposed to authorial intent

ad nauseam

Fair, but community consensus is that of oxidization to reflect how the Rust community comes in, takes over, and ruins every discussion about programming by finding some way to mention Rust. It is very much a virtual oxidization process.

Case in point: This discussion was originally about SQLite.
