That's wild! I wonder how far I could get at a place like that by saying random things trigger me, like "don't call it a sprint because I once tripped and broke a tooth while sprinting" or something like that. Make an entire organization change their jargon and use fun words like "this is our two week adventure!"
I once told someone that they shouldn't use 'flesh out an idea' because it's offensive to skeletons.
In a previous job, in whiteboard sessions, one of the team would always refer to something as the "final solution" and I could never tell whether he was doing it on purpose or not
Why not try… master is now main after all
I once had a software manager who used "master/child". He had a previous stint as a teacher at an English private school.
Yeah but in that case main is shorter, still understandable, and has the same autocomplete. It’s actually an improvement.
That may be the game that others are playing. I always wonder how much of this is other countries paying agents to spoil the productivity of the West, as a retaliation for unmerited wars we do to them.
This is actually a great high concept for a comedy.
