Why the hell did github change default branch from 'master' to 'main'

Hello,

OK so I was thinking, you can email the support line and give them a list of all the words that hurt you and ask them to replace them with safe words that do not.

I guess thinking about it, it is not likely they will help but now I am thinking, I see so many of you here so upset by words I could maybe make a browser plugin for the sensitive folk, a super simple 2 feild setup where you list all the words too painful for you to see when you are looking at the internet and simply replace them with your safe words of choice, maybe even a comforting photograph?

I am just brainstorming, I will have a go at coding it and drop an update here when it's done so all you deeply hurt people can again use the internet without fear.

I think with so many delicate people I could release it for free and just make money with it from adverts.

Hope that makes more sense to you :)
I don't think anyone is hurt. If anyone is hurt, sounds like you're the one. At least from your replies.

It's funny how things like these are going on unchecked.

At what point do we draw the line?

Nobody knows and that's the bigger problem.

Sire,

I assure you I am not hurt I am in a very good mood today thank you.
 
I know this happened 6 months ago. But every time I commit something to my codebase - this pisses me off.
All this virtue signaling.

The name comes from a masterpiece, master copy - it has nothing to do with slaves. Even if it was, are we just gonna remove words from dictionaries?

Are they going to rename the "master's degree" to "main" degree?
Blame the PC cult.
 
It's crazy. Same with whitelist/blacklist, now you're meant to use allowlist/blocklist - despite whitelists and blacklists having nothing to do with skin color.
As part of an effort to make Black Hat World more inclusive, we will be rebranding from Black Hat World to Block Hat World. Block Hat World users will subsequently be referred to as "Blockheads".

The White Hat & Black Hat subforums will be renamed to Allow Hat & Block Hat respectively.

This is obviously a joke, Black Hat World isn't getting renamed. ;)

Wow!!! Such a brilliant idea and a befitting name.

I'm actually a blockhead in real life.

Wow, that's so brave and stunning. Were glad to see you taking the plight of minorities seriously!
 
This is what happens when you start giving in to autistic children that have no purpose and who can only find satisfaction by blaming the culture they grew up in for their failures in life because after getting 100 participation trophies in school they got into the real world and realised they're actually not as special as they thought they were.

Once sports teams and brands started pandering to woke PC bullshit it opened the gates and now we can see they just keep going and going and going to more and more ridiculous "objects of oppression" that they can virtuously destroy.

Truth be told they're the bottom feeders of society and if there weren't any participation trophies they would have never gotten any trophies at all.

Half of them are legitimately autistic and the other half have chronic daddy and mommy issues.
 
They also replaced or want to replace the words "blacklist" and "whitelist".
What has the world come to? This is really clown world.

Racism? I watched it happening, and I have no way to justify it (and damn, I am black... don't play that card on me guys lolol) lol. I was like... why on earth would you do that to justify a word that isn't used for that context?... lol. :p

Nice. Along the same line, any plans to re-brand Purple Hats?
;)
