It sounds way less offensive to those who decry the original terminology’s problematic roots but still keeps its meaning intact.

    If anyone is offended by this CS term - you are a certified soyflake.

      Looking at your self-description in your profile, you don’t seem like the type to be a raging MAGA idiot, but saying things like “soyflake” really makes you sounds like one.

        Whatever you say. I hate it when people get offended by the most irrelevant things, and the word “soyflake” seems perfect for those kinds of people. My invention btw - it’s a combo of soy and snowflake that just came to me as I was writing the above comment. Also, I don’t really like Trump. But I also don’t like Harris even more. Trump is also friendlier to crypto. Harris leans way too much into Marxist ideas for my taste and also I hate wars and the deep state (which is more related to the left than the right). But don’t get me wrong, I also hate hyper-religious MAGA low-IQ hillbillys. I REALLY, REALLY like Elon tho. And I like how he is fighting the obvious left-wing bias we have in cyberspace. I’m a neurospicy guy with spicy multidimensional beliefs. Hate me, but that’s how I am, at least for the moment. I’m fairly fluid when it comes to my beliefs. I’m for example pretty deep into a conspiracy arc atm, but that might change.
