> Could the `Hardcore Go` program be renamed?
> Hardcore is a word associated with porn; although I'm sure it attracts some people, it alienates others. A new name might convey the rigor and thoroughness of the program, and also avoid images of violence and misogyny.

That's why you shouldn't use normie programming languages. Use C/C++ instead.

I actually don't mind go. I haven't found any real use for it yet, but I appreciate the simplicity. Certainly prefer it to mozilla's fucking abortion of a programming language.

"As a woman who has written mostly Ruby professionally and doesn't consider herself a hardcore programmer, I felt double excluded."
when will this meme stop
when did people become so god damn motherfucking sensitive?
they're literally saying that they don't associate "hardcore" with porn, yet they want it to be changed for those that might associate it with it, not a single person like that existing in the discussion
where did looking at things with perspective go, being practical about making decisions like this, weighing advantages and disadvantages, thinking about whether the effort is really worth it?
seriously, can't rubyfags just stay with ruby? go is everything ruby is not, for good
>>51830213

judging by ^, she doesn't even use Go
and I think the "hardcore porn" thing reflects a lot on herself

What is with these sexually obsessive weirdos projecting their bizarro-world shit onto everyone?
See also that comment thread where they guy says *nix is full of sexually suggestive commands like touch, finger, and some others.

Still most of what the majority of /g/ will ever accomplish.
>>51831507
>touch, finger
they should rename those commands. seriously.
>>51831507
>What is with these sexually obsessive weirdos projecting their bizarro-world shit onto everyone?
This. "Hardcore" is also associated with rough stone used as an infill. What's with the sex obsession? The SJWs need to get laid already.
>>51831779
Do you know what "finger" means in this context?
>>51831821
It doesn't matter, it's what "other people" might *think* it means. Get with the program, anon.
>>51831851
C'mon, faggot, use your brain. Explain the etymology of "finger" as a Unix command.
>>51831918
>the etymology of "finger" as a Unix command.
It's just another clear example of the 1960's patriarchy pushing women out of technology, which remains an issue to this day. D'uh.
>>51831821

I don't know what finger means, desu. I could google it, though. not that it matters much.
>>51831982
and here's is the explanation:

The name "Github reminds me too much of the internet pornography website "pornhub", which is responsible for the misogynistic objectification of women and trans people. As I am easily offended and triggered by stupid shit, since I am a genderfluid transnegro, everyone should check their privilege and sign this petition

> not that it matters much.
Come on, you pathetic shits, it's important to understand these things so that you can actually explain to these types of retards why they're wrong. Just saying, "no, I'm not changing it, stop bike shedding and posting stupid feely bullish" you can instead say, "stop sexualizing technology. The commands are named as they are because ..."
>>51832124
Good job. Personally, I would have said, "it refers to using your finger, just like you would slide your finger down a phone book searching for a listing." That's my recollection, and I guess it's supported by that link:
> I frequently saw people running their fingers
down the WHO display saying things like "There's Don and that's Pattie but
I don't know when Tom was last seen." or "Who in hell is VVK and where
does line 63 go?"

The first thing that comes to mind when I hear "hardcore" is video games.
