Btw, I call it an Americano. If I don’t want milk I’ll call it a Black Americano. |  |

He's the sort of person that calls people on the left a snowflake.
I genuinely despair at some of the people we share this country with. |  |

Sort of prick who makes a real point of saying ‘Merry Christmas’ because in his head, you shouldn’t really say that anymore. |  | | |

Funnily enough I have actually had to do some work recently in some of our codebase where we use the terms whitelist and blacklist, in light of recent events. Now, personally, I don't think they were ever meant to be racist but changing them to allowlist and blocklist took absolutely no effort and is just as clear. | |

I actually think allowlist and blocklist are clearer.
Whereas I think the changing from Master/Slave in GitHub for instance is less clear. Perhaps that is just familiarity though.

I actually agree, it's easier to read at a glance.
I hate variable naming at the best of times anyway.
GitHub change was the weirder one because it wasn't master as in master-slave analogy used (like you usually see in Redis, SQL etc.) but master as in master copy.
I think they said they're going to rename it as main as the default which is fine. I don't know why they didn't just go back to trunk though, given it's already established. Maybe they just don't want it to be seen as they are recommending trunk based development. | |

Access to social media rally does bring out the very worst in people.
I've known a bloke for over twenty years who has never made a racist statement or told a racist joke in my presence. I would never have had him down as being either a hard or soft racist. I don't have a clue how he votes and he's never offered up a political opinion.
Since lockdown he's joined facebook for the first time in his life. At first he started uploading his favourite family photographs. Fast forward three and a half months and he is regularly sharing stuff such as "all lives matter", objecting to BLM being on football shirts because FIFA wouldn't let England have the poppy on our shirts, a picture of a cute little kid wearing a union flag suit and bowtie whilt holding the union flag with the message "This image has been banned by facebook for being racist. Share if you have the balls" and a picture of the union flag with words underneath saying "lefties have tried to get the union jack [sic] banned because it offends Muslims. Please share this image to show you're not afraid". | |

He must have been dropped on his head when he was a baby. He's ranting about a load of stuff that has literally never happened. I drink black Americano and nobody had ever winced or looked uncomfortable when I've ordered one and nor would they. Utter plum. |  |

And why is it that these types invariably look like a potato that a child has coloured in with a red crayon? Weird. | |

His face get's visibly more red the longer the video goes on. | |

You, sir, are part of society's problem.
"Americano" indeed. Its just a normal coffee and I do not expect to have to use these silly names to enjoy the privilege of buying a normal coffee. |  |

It’s the same people who claim that “Baa baa black sheep” and “Blackboards “ have been banned. Absolute nonsense. |  | | |

Of course- as with many of these things, there is a grain of truth in some of that.
Whilst baa baa black sheep was not banned, it was fairly firmly replaced in a number of places with baa baa rainbow sheep. My children went to a playgroup where that was (bizarrely) sung. | |

There is a difference to how an Americano and a black coffee are made, technically.
Don't think I could taste the difference if I was asked. | |

I want to be able to go into a shop and ask for a coffee without having to parse a huge number of ridiculous americanised names and sub categories.
That boat appears to have sailed.  | |

I get the condescending "do you mean Americano". Followed by "is that Grande?"

Isn’t ‘Americano’ espresso and water and a ‘black coffee’ usually a filter coffee? I’d want to confirm the difference. The Starbucks grande thing is nonsense though. |  |

Americano is Italian I believe, not American. It's not the same as a filter coffee, it's a shot of espresso topped up with hot water. | |

Indeed it is. Though many Italians use the term pejoratively when it comes to coffee. Apparently, an espresso with enough sugar to make an edible sludge is the correct way to drink the stuff (according to my *very* wise sauce). |  |
