This is right next to the objection of the use male and female to describe the
two parts of a connector. I lament that snowflakes and such are trying
desperately to enforce their quest for radical egalitarianism and see hidden
agendas behind just about everything---except their own, of course.

An open source community thrives on being open. It also welcomes those who like
to pick a fight for various, usually personal reasons.

This really is an amazing discussion. I actually do understand why "master"
and "slave" might make people uncomfortable, although the meaning is quite
clear. Perhaps we need a currently used alternative:
1) Captain and Private
2) Manager and employee
3) CEO and Peon
4) Controller and Controlled

Hello,
My opinion is that the terms "master/slave" describe well some situations.
They could be seen by some people as offensive (although unfortunately
sometimes true, even today) when applied to persons. But it is not
offensive when applied to processes in a computer. They are not living
entities
Hi
Today I've added a couple of lines in my source code, and I'm very ashamed of
it.
it "runs", and I know what it does (for now), but it's "too clever".
I have "abused" the "else" clause of the loops to makes a break "broke" more
loops
for i in range(10):
