Unreal Engine Coding Standards Debate

Why make problems out of things that aren't a problem? Official Unreal Engine Coding Standards... Discussion Racial, ethnic, and religious inclusiveness • Do not use metaphors or similes that reinforce stereotypes. This includes those that contrast black and white, such as blacklist / whitelist. • Do not use words that refer to historical trauma or lived experience of discrimination. This includes slave, master, and nuke. Gender inclusiveness • Refer to hypothetical people using the pronouns they, them, and their, even in the singular. • When you refer to anything that is not a person, always use it and its. For example: a module, plugin, function, client, server, or any other software or hardware component. Do not assign a gender to anything that doesn't have one. • Do not use collective nouns like guys that assume gender. • Avoid colloquial phrases that contain arbitrary genders, like “a poor man's X.”

На скриншоте показан пост с официальными стандартами кодирования Unreal Engine, где обсуждаются инклюзивные формулировки для расы, религии и гендера. Шутка в преувеличенной попытке запретить привычные технические термины и выражения вроде «blacklist», «master» и «a poor man's X», поэтому мем используют как саркастическую реакцию на чрезмерную политкорректность и поиск проблем там, где их не видят.
