If you are vegan playing mind games then bravo, this might be quite effective.

it always entertains me when a vim aficionado regurgitates the “just missing a good editor” joke, given that one of the editors Emacs offers is a pretty comprehensive clone of vim.

(personally, I never had any problem with the default editor when I migrated to it from vi, though I was using a keyboard that already had ctrl next to a.)

I really f’ing love Emacs, and… this is true. I’m still constantly learning, 3 decades in.

But that’s part of its appeal - it’s a constantly evolving, you tweak and modify it for your needs, and you grow and change together.

Black/white as bad/good is a clear case where there is a clear logical reason to change IMO. That perpetuates unconscious bias.

And yet there’s a big push to rename git “master” branches, which have no slave connotations and are more analogous to master recordings.

Its not like I’ll fight it, but it’s stupid.

You do? Because I don’t. There is nothing racist about the concept of master. Is a masterpiece racist? Are master tapes, Are post-graduate degrees racist? We may as well declare “work” insensitive because slaves had to work.

Don’t get me wrong, there are many terms we should adjust. I just can’t see how “master” is one of them.
