Ask HN: How do you use internal project codenames in your company?

阿新 • • 發佈：2018-12-28
We use them and I complain about it a lot. Anything that reduces clarity and transparency is a bad thing in my opinion - a codename is at best security theatre, and at worst just someone's power trip because they know about the super secret project and you don't. That annoys me a lot. If a project can have a simple descriptive name rather than a code I'll always go for that.
