HR is percolating on a mandate to have marketing and engineering scrub materials and products of the terms “Master” and “Slave”.
Fine, I get it- I don’t want to be purposely adversarial as long as HR gives some grace period for my brain to re-wire itself.
But I thought I’d ask, what are your good alternatives that express the relationship between two entities that work in the same manner as those terms? (less the inherent historical connotations..)
I get hives when I get involved in a conversation that has a mix of serial and ethernet components, and client/server gets shoved aside when these (often times) serial terms bleed over. I like clear & specific terminology.
