“censorship” yeah no
Fucking Scunthorpes!
The w*ke agenda …
weke? It’s the Internet, you can say weke
they mean the wake agenda, all these boats disturbing the water’s surface are going to bring an end to society
I had a Pycharm linter with “inconsiderate writing list” flag my use of “bi” as inappropriate, recommending to use “bisexual” instead. In my data job, BI, means business intelligence, it’s everywhere.
I’m confused how bi is inappropriate
Gotta love Microsoft Power Bisexual
I now identify as a Power Bisexual.
Power top or bottom?
365
“I’m a power bisexual 365.”
That works.
How is that inconsiderate? That’s just informal
(Using “bi” to mean “bisexual”, I mean, not “business intelligence” lol)
No, it’s right.
Business intelligence is inconsiderate and must be stopped!
Fully agreed! And while we’re at it, get rid of Power Pivot!
I think it’s probably because it is informal or maybe ambiguous.
Huh, I’ve only heard business logic before.
Business intelligence is in the context of analytics. It means something very different from “business logic”, in case you’re thinking they’re synonyms…

The ol’ master/ slave configuration again…
those are terms, this is substrings within words
I haven’t seen branches or variables being called
arseThen again, I do like to catch exceptions as
upso I canthrow upAt least for that we have replacement names that make sense (like primary and secondary or replica).
The problem was named after an incident in 1996 in which AOL’s profanity filter prevented residents of the town of Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, England, from creating accounts with AOL, because the town’s name contains the substring “cunt”.
haha
What is a ‘charset’ in this depraved persons mind? A corset? Must be a mighty kinky corset.
It’s replacing all instances of arse and ass with bottom…but doing so in about the most naïve way possible.
Aah yeah, thanks!
Someone needs to learn regular expressions.
It’s got an arse in there
OMG this took me way too long to get. They replace the substring “ass” 😭😭
and “arse”, as seen in charset
It’s time for chbottomt and clbottom to finally become valid HTML statements.
Or just have some random subset of browsers support them for some reason and other browsers not so much. It’s the html way.
I have a friend that works at Salesforce, he told me that they made him change the name of some classes that used the term Blacklist because of inclusivity
My previous workplace did the same thing around 2020 with the words whitelist and blacklist and some other words.
It was around the same time when there was news about GitHub moving from master to main/mainline as the default Git branch.
This kind of thing is infuriating. Especially when the actual etymology of “blacklist” is a 17th century play where a list of nobles scheming against the British monarchy is described as a blacklist.
But the word black is used so clearly it’s racist, right? How can we be woke if we don’t randomly ban words because of their alternate meanings?
We will never solve the Scunthorpe Problem.
Scunthorpe Problem
If only one could buttassinate censorship…
Don’t you mean buttbuttinate?
bottombottominateFTFY
I have no rebottomal for this comment.
I mean, you could just use a vaguely smarter filter. A tiny "L"LM might have different problems, but not this one.
So a TLM?
TJA suggests a TLM.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Awww, it’s trying its best!
Indeed; it definitely would show some promise. At that point, you’d run into the problem of needing to continually update its weighting and models to account for evolving language, but that’s probably not a completely unsolvable problem.
So maybe “never” is an exaggeration. As currently expressed, though, I think I can probably stand by my assertion.
Hasn’t it been proven unsolvable?
Proven? I don’t think so. I don’t think there’s a way to devise a formal proof around it. But there’s a lot of evidence that, even if it’s technically solvable, we’re nowhere close.
Have you tried adding a few more kilobytes of regex?
Or a few more gb of LLM?
I swear, I just need 4-5 more graphics cards to solve this!
Impossible. There is always some mf named like cum-sock, smh
some mf named like cum-sock
Excuse me? My family BUILT this country!
Or Grab-her.
It causes so much dawizard.
there’s a very trivial solution that always works actually, it’s called “stop being a prude”
It’s a clbuttic
Truly in a clbottom of its own
Must be a TikTok influencer
I am in doubt. That wouldn’t even compile. But who am I to think somebody changing something like this would actually do a test compilation afterwards…
HTML isn’t compiled, and unknown attributes are allowed. The best practice is to prefix non-standard attributes with
data-(e.g.<div data-foo="test">) but nothing enforces that. Custom attributes can be retrieved in JavaScript or targeted in CSS rules.
When you give the task to an intern-to-be.
