   I haven't made a fuss about the master-slave topology, however now things have become weird. There's an ongoing effort to deprecated the master branch's name in Git, which I find to be a strange move as the master-slave topology doesn't even apply to git – all branches are independent by design. Maybe I'm employing an overly rational approach, but shouldn't our actions make …

     > It's just ideological subversion. Computer hacking should never be involved into politics other than it's own. I don't know if I have a strong opinion here. I do think though that professionalism and political stunts aren't very compatible. Like when a website blocks a whole range of IP addresses, because nation leader bad. But what if someone makes code with an intention to…
