the hard thing about naming something in science is that you have to name it at the point when you first observe it... which is when you have the least amount of information you will ever have
- "dark" matter
- "anti"matter
- most physics terms actually
- every research paper repo I've ever created
- slack channel names
- category theory
- linear algebra
- complex numbers ( I find them quite simple actually )
- generation names
please share your own
yeah. “complex” numbers is a bad term because people hear it and already think they won’t understand them ._.
also “real” numbers because there’s nothing real about them we made them all up :D
