          Sweet, good opportunity for some woke developers to start contributing to kernel source in meaningful manner. So many useful renames to do!

            What a sad day for our software culture.
            If anything, I will be more careful to use those "bad" and not-"inclusive" terms more often.

                Some replacements are not semantically equivalent. A leader gets work done as well, whereas a master doesn't, and merely delegates work to others and at best orchestrates it.

                  Open source was always the corporatization of Free software.
