Originally posted by northernladuk View PostTo be fair I don't really have a problem with this. As tech changes new names and references come in all the time. We've gone from servers to resources/CI's etc and many other examples so don't see why a couple of other word changes will harm anyone. Yeah I think it's a bit daft as I'm sure absolutely no one sees them as a reference to racism but hey, if it's as simple as a new, and possibly better word, then go for it.
That said, I wonder if the brave sysadmins/techies retroactively changing this will have to be treated for PTSD after being exposed to such foul terms, in the same way as those whose work involves watching child porn.
You heard it here first.
More likely, we'll find huge amounts of racist code comments "//fixing Bob's stinky curry code"Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
