Your mediocre brainstorming helper
I love the unix style of binary names: they either have a cool history behind them, or they're a cute pun.
And see, I'm pretty bad at coming up with those on the spot when creating a new project, so I wanted to have a word generator to aid my inspiration.
Your usual word generator will give you 5 two-letter words before it gives you anything useful though, so I decided to make it give you only the more uncommon words.
With those, I now can generate brainstorming material at will!
It prints a random words to stdout. Very simple.
If you specify a number after the command (uclanr 5
), it will print that many random words, separated by spaces
The words this program uses are ranked by popularity: from 1001st most common word to the 10000th.
From there, I removed all words that are 4 letters long and below, leaving us with words that are at least 5 letters long.
And in the end, we have 7165 possible words. Hyperspecific, I know.
I haven't figured out how to publish packages yet, and idk how github releases work; so far I have this barebones solution:
Have git and rust installed
cargo install --git https://github.com/Axlefublr/uclanr.git
uclanr 5
