We’re already using that on the org chart.

Or just use the existing terms. People will find issues with just abuut anything.

osaerisxero ,

Leaving aside the problematic nature of the existing terms, the result was that people actually thought a little more about the relationships the things had and started using better/more precise terminology for the relationships: primary/secondary, active/hot/cold, parent/child, etc.

Net positive all round.

Woah there. You’re using about 25% more of your brain than the rest of the internet. We’re gonna need you to tone that reasonability down a bit.

Still easier than getting multicast working

This exactly. M/S ment nothing to me messing with HDDs as a kid.

It arguably only makes sense in a control node/ worker node context, but worker is obvious enough in that context.

Yeah this will just piss off the anti-porn/right-wing/tradcath(?) types instead of leftist/neolib/anti-racist types.

I remember back in the late 90s being in college. I brought my girlfriend to class one day. She raised her hand after the professer was explaining Master/Slave roles. Keep in mind, I’m white. She’s black. She’s not enrolle

d in this class AT ALL.

So the professer sees this, and says “Yes, you there, girl I’ve never seen in 4 months of this class”

And all she said was “Master and Slave drives? That sounds sexy!”

The whole class facepalmed.

That’s the one I naturally came up with too.

I’ve seen publisher/subscriber out in the wild.

That’s not bad actually.

Gotta be careful with that one when talking data streams though.

A pub/sub pattern implemented for message queue flow is available in most cloud (and on prem) solutions.

I've seen 'Active / Passive' used, that seems alright. There's plenty of alternative terms to use without borrowing terminology from sexual roleplay.

Anyway, the Sub is supposed to be the one that's actually in control for this kind of thing (otherwise you'd just be in an abusive relationship), so that confuses things when you start trying to applying it elsewhere.

I’m the passive one in my relationship.

Current is flowing when probing the shunt. It’s getting a little hot

SomeoneSomewhere ,

The issue is acronyms; there’s millions of products, schematics, datasheets, and manuals that refer to them as MISO and MOSI with no further explanation. Any new standard that doesn’t fit runs into the 15-competing-standards problem, and ought to be followed by an “AKA MISO” every time it’s used.

CrimeDad ,

Just have to find synonyms that begin with the same letters, possibly in different languages.

superkret ,

Other countries all use the English terms.
Except for the French, probably.

Revan343 ,

I’ll always like Primary/Secondary.

Chocrates ,

I thought the connotation was chattel slavery, not BDSM.

copd ,

Also pub/sub is already estsblished and used as common computing abbreviations

cacheson ,

the Sub is supposed to be the one that's actually in control

This is a myth, presumably meant to be reassuring to subs that are new to BDSM, at the expense of risk awareness. In principle the sub is no more "in control" than the dom is, and in practice they are often significantly less so.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks ,

Anyway, the Sub is supposed to be the one that’s actually in control for this kind of thing

I think there’s a better way to put that. It’s often called a power exchange. Both people involved can rescind consent at any time, and there’s also negotiation that happens before scenes to set up expectations and limits, but I don’t know too many subs that want to be in control of a scene. My experience is they want to give up control in a way that is safe.

Primary/secondary?

KeepFlying ,

I have my primary, and my secondary, and my secondary secondary.

Leader/follower works though.

usrtrv ,

That doesn’t make sense depending on the context. New I2C standard switched to controller/target for example. This conveys that one device is controlling the other devices.

s38b35M5 ,
@s38b35M5@lemmy.world avatar

My suggestion doesn’t make sense in the classic PATA sense either, since there were potentially several “slave” devices, but they weren’t slaves so much as dependent on the “master.”
