These kind of requests are super US-centric without any regards to the rest of the world.
I understand these things stem from a place of discomfort with the racial crisis in the US - and I applaud the intentions.
However, these requests are not inclusive to:
- The foreigner in your team trying to think and communicate in English, while tip-toeing around whatever was deemed offensive this week on Twitter.
- The developer in Botswana trying to keep up with this week's terminology changes as dictated by Twitter influencers in the US.
I dread the day when someone gets in trouble for saying "Hey guys, I added the URL in the whitelist and pushed it to master"
- stnmtn 6y agoI don't think anyone is going to get in trouble for saying that lol The only reason someone would, is if they were repeatedly told "hey can you use this term instead?" but they kept using those intentionally to annoy others.
