  • I think they’re just uncomfortable with the word “master”

    1 person over at Microsoft complained, and they moved mountains for this person to replace master with main. It sounds like a joke, but it’s not.

    and that seems completely reasonable to me

    No it doesn’t. Why does an entire industry need to flip over, because of a single person? Like the ability of changing the master branch for yourself should have been enough. Changing the default over on Github to strong-arm the rest of the world is disgusting behaviour. Which is why I’m sticking to master wherever I can.

    especially when they’re people from a group which has been subjected to slavery.

    That is literally every group… Every group has been slaves (and slavers) at some point in time. That’s not a good argument.













  • What are the chances you are GenZ / Alpha?

    Older generations bitch about “damn kids these days don’t respect their elders” ever since at least Socrates.

    The young have always bitched about the older generations being stuck in their ways and being too nostalgic about their own youth.

    This is the way.

    You’re not special.
