  • Police accountability is just the tip of the iceberg, though. A huge issue is the fact that a lot of minority history isn’t taught properly in US schools, and important events that define race relations are completely ignored. Using the term “master” to describe Git branches, for example, is just another way of staying ignorant and insensitive to those events.

    I can understand that there are some edge cases where master/slave should still be correct as it is accurate, but for every other case, it’s still better to use a term that is culturally aware and technically relevant, even if it’s a small difference that’s part of a larger cultural shift.

    Edit: I didn’t see the hit piece / exposé that was made about him until now

    From what I know about him, he is a genuine person, and his projects are done to help people if possible.

    I know that many influencers profit off of suffering/kindness in a scummy way, but I believe that MrBeast is one of the few that actually try to do it ethically.
