So, how hard would it be to
sed -ri 's/slave/receiver/g; s/master/sender/g' redis_source/
...to make this product better for more people and take nothing away from it? That would be a "worldly action" to show some goodness.
- platinumrad 8y agoA huge diff that doesn't mean anything is a nontrivial cost. Documentation would also have to be changed and articles would have to be updated. Deprecating something, even terminology, should not be done lightly.
- jachee 8y ago"That doesn't mean anything to white people", you mean? Edit: HN is Reddit now. "Downvote if you disagree."
- aiven 8y agothis is how voting works tho
- meowface 8y agoIn practice, but not on paper. HN guidelines forbid that sort of voting behavior.
- grzm 8y agoThere is no guideline on HN forbidding down voting for disagreement. 'dang as recently as a month ago reiterated this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17666145 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17666145
- meowface 8y agoAh sorry, not sure where I got that idea from, then. I may've been confused by various subreddit mods establishing rules along the lines of "the downvote is not a disagree button".
- dang 8y agoYup: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16574021 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16574021
- jachee 8y agoSometimes the right thing is nontrivial.
- platinumrad 8y agoMaybe. I'm undecided on the issue of changing existing instances of "master-slave", but I would definitely use something else in a greenfield project. You're getting downvotes not (just) due to disagreements but because your first comment was incorrect (it's not just a sed command) and your second was unproductive.
- Turing_Machine 8y agoStanding up to thought-policing bullies is a worldly action that shows goodness, IMO.
