  That's a Code of Conduct violation. It's not the 90s anymore, there's no quarter for this type of thing in modern development teams. Rust's style checker even flags up the use problematic magic numbers.

    This is only for rustc, not for arbitrary rust programs.
    • cpburns2009 2y ago
      Wouldn't rustc flagging "problematic" numbers prevent arbitrary rust programs from having them in the source?
      • bitwize 2y ago
        He means that the style checker only checks for those sorts of numbers in the source code to rustc. But the point remains: there is far, far less tolerance for the sort of humor that objectifies women today, and even laughing at it can get you in trouble as Tim Peters recently found out.

          I mean, 0xDDDB00B5 is about as appropriate in a codebase as 0xB166D1C5 or 0x73571C23 would be. Which is to say, it isn’t.

            What objectionable thing is 0x73571C23 supposed to be?

              Testicle. It's a small unit test.

              TESTICLE I believe
          • g15jv2dp 2y ago
            You're offended if someone wrote "testicle" in source code? Are you also offended about "ankle" or "hair"? The puritanism...
            • nequo 2y ago
              I’m not offended. It is unprofessional. Talking about sex at a workplace that is not about sex is going to be offputting to many people who are not there to have sex.
              • g15jv2dp 2y ago
                The mere mention of the word "testicle" makes you think that your coworkers want to have sex with you? Wow.
                • nequo 2y ago
                  Have you tried talking about testicles in a work meeting? Genuine question.
                  • g15jv2dp 2y ago
                    There's a difference between "talking about it" and "the word is uttered somehow at some point".
                    • nequo 2y ago
                      A constant in a codebase is not “uttered somehow at some point.” It is a fixture for everyone to see until it is changed by another commit.

          Excuse me, but men can have boobs too.
      • steveklabnik 2y ago
        No. These tests are part of rustc’s tests, not part of anything that runs for arbitrary Rust programs.
