What Hacker News says
6 sources- User doesn't like the fact that buildbot (which they think is maintained by mozilla) uses "master/slave" terminology https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-buildbot/issues/2 . Mozilla gives buildbot $15k for changing it https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2015/12/10/mozilla-open-source...
- User doesn't like that dining philosophers is cited with some male and/or gender-neutral pronouns and placeholders (even though the original exposition was already changed to female pronouns) -- proceeds to change the rest of the pronouns to female (I guess gender-neutral didn't make sense) https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/25640
- User thinks "bad code style" is offensive https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/41646
- User doesn't like brotli encoding type being called "bro" https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366559#c147

e code of conduct is too general in its suggestions that all people be respected and treated fairly -- it needs to explicitly cite certain groups https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-www/issues/268
This stuff is absolutely ridiculous. Write a code of conduct, make sure everyone is respected, and make that the end of it. Changing documentation to gender-neutral pronouns is something I can actually get behind -- nevertheless, that's still not fair apparently.
In addition to the link ceejayoz posted, here are some other instances of this complaint:
https://www.drupal.org/node/2275877
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-buildbot/issues/2
https://github.com/antirez/redis/issues/3185
I just mentioned it because I notice a greater sensitivity about language in the npm community, e.g. never using gendered language.
I don't share the view that "master" somehow endorses or minimizes slavery.
In NPM v4.0.0thanks for the &replies ;-)

tbh, Go vs. Rust for the, "i wanna write a Docker-thing!" use case was pretty much the question i had in mind.
the Rust ppl are looking toward static linking [links]...
